Bakewell Muffins

Susannah Hardy

My new ‘invention’ Bakewell Muffins… really yummy and pence to make.

Ingredients

• 225 g SR Flour
• 75g Sugar
• 1 egg beaten.
• 90ml Oil
• 250 ml Milk.
• Almond extract to taste.
• A little Jam. I used Raspberry. Slithered Almonds if you like

Method

1. Set oven to 180C
2. Put all the dry ingredients into a bowl, add egg, milk oil and Almond extract to taste, Stir together quite briefly, it needs to be mixed but not smooth.
3. Pop a spoonful of mixture in a Muffin case, drop a small tsp of jam on top then cover with a little more mixture. Sprinkle on the Almond slithers.
4. Bake for 25 mins in the preheated oven. Cool on a wire rack
5. These will freeze well.
6. I made 15 Muffins and cost these to around 8p each. Nothing was reduced although the flour was basic range. The egg was free-range and the jam homemade although I added the cost of buying Jam.
