Servings: 8 muffins
Ingredients
- 120 grams caster sugar
- 300 grams all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- Pinch of salt
- 2 eggs M
- 250 ml whole milk
- 120 ml sunflower oil or another vegetable oil
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Equipment
- Muffin pan
- Cupcake liners paper ones are best
Instructions
- Put the sugar, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl and mix together briefly with a spatula.
- In another bowl, whisk together the wet ingredients: eggs, milk, sunflower oil and vanilla extract.
- Add the contents of both bowls together and mix with a spatula until combined, this may be a bit lumpy. Do't over mix!
- Take a muffin tin lined with cupcake liners. Use an ice-cream scoop to scoop the mixture into the muffin tins. If you're making muffins, you can fill the muffin tray as much as you like - I personally like to fill it to about half an inch below the rim.
- Bake the muffins for 20 minutes at 200°C/400˚F (conventional oven) until cooked through and golden brown.
Tips
Did your muffins not come out of the oven creamy or fluffy enough? You may have over-mixed the batter or left the muffins in the oven too long or too hot.
