Ingredients

  • 250 g of self-raising flour
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • 75 g of caster sugar
  • 1 lemon, finely grated zest
  • 2 large of eggs, lightly beaten
  • 50 g of butter
  • 1 tsp of baking powder
  • 250 g of plain yogurt
  • 250 g of blueberries

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas 6). Line a muffin tin with muffin cases. Melt the butter in a small pan, then leave to cool. Sift the flour into a large bowl, mix in the baking powder, sugar, lemon zest (if using), and a pinch of salt, then make a well in the centre.

  • Step 2

    Mix the yogurt, eggs, and cooled melted butter together in a large jug, then pour into the dry ingredients, along with the blueberries. Mix until just combined, but don’t over-mix or the muffins will be heavy. Don’t worry if there are a few lumps left in the mixture.

  • Step 3

    Spoon evenly into the muffin cases and bake for 20 minutes, or until risen and golden. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then serve warm or leave to cool.
