Blueberry Muffins


Serves 12

Preparation Time:

Cooking Time:

Ingredients:

  • 4 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 200g plain flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 5 tbsp SPLENDA® granulated
  • 175ml buttermilk/milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200g blueberries

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/gas mark 4. Prepare a 12-hole muffin tray with paper cases. This is best done in advance so the batter doesn't have to wait before being poured into the cases
  2. Sift the flour and baking powder into a large mixing bowl, then gently stir in the SPLENDA® Granulated
  3. In a separate bowl, mix the milk, vanilla extract, egg and the oil together. Make a well in the centre of the flour and slowly fold in the liquid. When all the liquid is added, beat well and add the blueberries.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin tray so that each case is about two-thirds full. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes. You can test whether the muffins are cooked by pressing lightly on one; if the top springs back, they are ready.
  5. Cool the muffins on a wire rack.

Tip: For a really indulgent treat they can be served slightly warm, split and spread with butter and jam (not included in nutrition information)
