Ingredients
- Egg: 3 eggs
- Milk: 100ml whole milk, warm
- Butter: 100g butter, softened
- Orange: 1 orange, zested
- Plain Flour: 250g plain flour
- Golden Caster Sugar: 50g golden caster sugar, plus extra for dusting
- Vanilla Extract: 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Fast Action Dried Yeast: 7g sachet fast-action dried yeast
- Raisins: 100g raisins
- Mixed Peel: 100g mixed peel
- Sultanas: 100g sultanas
Directions
- Mix the flour, yeast, milk and a pinch of salt in a tabletopmixerwith a dough hook. Mix in two eggs and the vanilla, then knead until you have a smooth, springy dough. Cover and leave to rise for at least 2 hrs, or overnight in the fridge, until doubled in size.
- Start the mixer again and add the sugar, butter and yolk from the remaining egg. Keep mixing and kneading until the dough is smooth again. Tip in the fruit and knead again quickly. Cover and leave to rise somewhere cool or in the fridge (so the butter doesn't melt out of the dough) for at least two hours, or overnight in the fridge, until doubled in size.
- Line a large six-hole muffin tin with paper cases. Divide the dough into six portions and roll into neat balls. Put a ball in each paper case, cover the tin with a tea towel and leave the dough to rise for 20 mins. Alternatively, chill in the fridge overnight, then leave the dough balls to warm up for 30 mins before baking.
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Brush the tops of the muffins with the egg white and dust with caster sugar. Bake for 15-20 mins, or until the muffins have risen and are golden brown in colour. Leave to cool on awire rack.Will keep for three days in an airtight container.
