My baby muffins and one big one.
Some are missing here cos I gave some bigger ones to my flatmate.
Recipe adapted from Christine
=Ingredients=
1 1/2 cup plain flour
100g blueberries - I used 125g
4 tbs caster sugar - I reduced to 3 1/2 tbs and the muffins are not sweet at all. Hmm, I'll follow the measurement exactly next time
3 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
1 egg
75g melted butter
3/4 cup + 2 tsp milk
Method
- Preheat oven to 200C. Using a whisk, lightly beat the egg. Set aside.
- Melt the butter by using double boiler method. Let it cools for a while.
- Pour the cold melted butter into the beaten egg. Add milk and mix well.
- In another bowl, sift the plain flour, baking powder and salt together (The original recipe doesn't have this step and I totally forgot about the baking powder which resulted in failed muffins).
- Use another bowl to mix salt, sugar and sifted flour together.
- Gradually pour the egg mixture into the middle of the flour mixture. Use a spatula to mix everything well until just blended. Don't over stir it. Add blueberries and fold through.
- Transfer the mixture to a nonstick muffin tray or muffin cups (70-80% full).
- Put a tray (filled up with water) underneath the muffin tray (as water bath) - refer to Christine's blog for picture details. Bake the mixture for 18-24 minutes (I bake for 18 minutes for the big ones, 10 minutes for the mini muffins). Remember to check the muffin with a stick whether it is fully baked already or not.
I just love the baby muffins ^v^
