Mincemeat sultana muffins
Recipe requested by katie1980
From Muffins by Susan Reimer (I think! It was given to me by a friend)
10 oz (280 g) plain flour *
2 tsp (10 ml) baking powder
1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) bicarbonate
1/2 tsp (2.5 ml) salt
3 oz (85 g) fine white granulated sugar
1 egg
8 fl oz (240 ml) milk
8 fl oz (240 ml) mincemeat (about 12 oz/350 g)
3 fl oz (90 ml) vegetable oil or 3 oz (85 g) butter, melted
3 oz (85 g) sultanas
Icing sugar for dusting (optional)
1. Prepare muffin tins. Preheat oven to 375-400°F, 190-200°C, gas mark 5-6.
2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, baking pwder, bicarbonate, salt and sugar.
3. In a separate bowl, beat egg with a fork. Stir in milk, mincemeat and oil/butter.
4. Pour all of liquid ingredients into dry mixture. Stir just until combined, adding sultanas during final strokes. The batter will be lumpy, but no dry flour should be visible. Do not over-stir.
5. Fill muffin cases. Bake 20-25 minutes until tops are lightly browned and spring back when lightly pressed. Sieve icing sugar over tops.
* With self-raising flour, omit baking pwder; do not adjust bicarbonate.
