Ingredients
- 380g self-raising flour
- 90g salted butter (see Note #1)
- 156g brown sugar (see Note #2)
- 125g fresh blueberries (see Note #3)
- 250ml milk
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
Note #2: I only used 100g of light brown sugar.
Note #3: Frozen blueberries work, too—just toss them in a bit of flour to prevent them from sinking to the bottom.
Method
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C for a fan-forced oven).
- Grease a 12-cup muffin pan (each cup should hold about a third of a cup of batter). See Note #1.
- Sift the flour into a bowl. Using your fingertips, rub in the butter until the mixture looks like fine breadcrumbs. Stir in the sugar.
- Make a well in the centre of the flour mixture, then add the blueberries, milk, and eggs. Gently stir until just combined (see Note #2).
- Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin pan.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
- Let the muffins stand in the pan for 5 minutes before turning them out to cool.
I added the zest of one lemon to my batter mixture as I like the combination of blueberries and lemon.
I used extra large Texas muffins cups - filled with 140 grams of mixture. This gave me six muffins.
