Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • 65 ml vegetable or sunflower oil
  • 125 ml milk (semi-skimmed or whole)
  • 125 g golden caster sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 200 g self-raising flour
  • a pinch of ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 130 g blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tablespoon demerara sugar (optional)

Instructions

  • Pre-heat oven: 190°C / 170°C (fan) / Gas Mark 5 / 375°F
  • Beat the egg until light and fluffy.
  • Add in the oil and milk, whisking together until combined.
  • Beat in the sugar and vanilla until smooth.
  • Sift in the flour, add in the nutmeg and salt, folding in gently being careful not to overmix.
  • Fold in the blueberries and spoon evenly into the muffin cases, so that the cases are almost full to the brim if you want the classic muffin top.
  • Sprinkle the demerara sugar over the top of each muffin and bake in the oven for 20-25mins until risen, golden on top and a skewer comes out clean.
