4. POur wet into dry and stir until just combined, adding dried fruit/nuts at the end.

5 Spoon into cases, Sprinkle with topping, and bake 20-25 mins.

aw you are a star midnight, that's perfect

about how many does that make? only have one muffin tin so can do 12 at a time

Try this. You can do it as individual muffins and its lovely.

Soz, should have said, 10-12, so you should be fine.

I use this as my standard muffin mix and put whatever else I want in - diced apple and cinnamon, choc bits, orange rind & poppy seeds.

125g butter
2/3 cup sugar
vanilla
2 eggs
2 cups SR flour
1 1/4 cups milk

Sometimes I put half mix on the bottom of a slice tray, spread stewed apples over, then top with the rest of the mix. Lovely

Bake at 180.
