    Hi toejumper

    This is my basic muffin recipe:

    2 cups plain flour
    1 tablespoon of baking powder
    1 teaspoon of salt
    ½ cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup sugar

    1 egg
    ¼ cup of sunflower oil
    1 cup of milk

    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees.
    Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately. Add the wet ingredients to the dry mix and quickly spoon into muffin cases.
    Cook middle of the oven rather than lower down as they rise better.
    Makes 10 well risen muffins.

    I made blackberry and apple muffins yesterday....I added the blackberries to the dry mix as they won't sink to the bottom if they're coated in flour and stirred in the stewed apples in at the last minute before putting into the oven.

    I'll add your thread to that one once you've had some more replies.
