Ingredients

  • Milk: 2 tbsp milk
  • Natural Yogurt: 140g natural yogurt
  • Plain Flour: 250g plain flour
  • Bicarbonate Of Soda: 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • Unsalted Butter: 100g unsalted butter softened, plus 1 tbsp, melted, for greasing
  • Baking Powder: 2 tsp baking powder
  • Golden Caster Sugar: 140g golden caster sugar
  • Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Blueberries: 125g pack blueberries (or use frozen)
  • Large Eggs: 2 large eggs

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases.Beatthe butter and caster sugar together until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs and beat in for 1 min, then mix in the yogurt, vanilla extract and milk. Combine the flour, baking powder and bicarb in a bowl with 1/4 tsp fine salt, then tip this into the wet ingredients and stir in. Finally, fold in the blueberries and divide the mixture between the muffin cases.
  2. Bake for 5 mins, then reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and bake for 15-18 mins more until risen and golden, and a cocktail stick inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  3. Cool in the tin for 10 mins, then carefully lift out onto a wire rack to finish cooling. Will keep for 3-4 days in an airtight container - after a day or two, pop them in the microwave for 10-15 secs on high to freshen up.
