Ingredients
350ml/3 cups plain flour
10ml/2 tsp baking powder
1.5ml/1/4 tsp salt
115g/1/2 cup caster sugar
2
eggs, beaten
300ml/1 1/4 cups milk
115g/1/2 cup butter, melted
5ml/1 tsp vanilla essence
175g/1 1/2 cups blueberries
Method:
Preheat the oven
to 200'C/400"F/Gas 6. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Sift the flour, baking
powder and salt into a large mixing bowl and
stir in the sugar.
Place the eggs,
milk, butter and vanilla essence in a separate bowl
and whisk together well.
Fold the egg
mixture into the dry ingredients with a metal spoon,
then gently stir in the blueberries.
Spoon the mixture
into the muffin cups, filling them to just below the
top. Place the muffin tin on the top shelf of the
oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the muffins
are well risen and lightly browned. Leave the
muffins in the tin for about 5 minutes, and then
turn them out on to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm
or cold.
