Ingredients

  • Soured Cream: 142ml carton soured cream
  • Egg: 2 medium eggs
  • Lemon: finely grated zest of 1 lemon
  • Butter: 100g butter, melted
  • Self Raising Flour: 350g self-raising flour
  • Baking Powder: 1 tsp baking powder
  • Blackberry: 150g punnet blackberries or blueberries
  • Light Muscovado Sugar: 100g light muscovado sugar
  • Demerara Sugar: demerara sugar to sprinkle
  • Peach: 2 fresh peaches, stoned and cut into wedges
  • Sparkling Water: 6 tbsp sparkling water

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and put 8 muffin cases in a muffin tray. Mix the flour, baking powder and sugar in a large bowl, add the melted butter, soured cream, eggs and lemon zest and beat just long enough to give a thick, smooth mixture - don't over-beat. Carefully stir in the fruit and finally the sparkling water, until just evenly combined.
  2. Divide the mixture between the muffin cases - they should be nice and full. Sprinkle generously with the sugar and bake for 25-30 mins or until risen and golden. The muffins are best served just warm. Will keep fresh in an airtight container in a cool place for 1-2 days.
