This is my favourite muffin recipe, works every time. I usually make it in my silicon mini muffin tray which holds 24. They freeze really well, so there are always some on hand to have with a cuppa. Just defrost in the microwave.
This is not a cake batter and does not need to be completely smooth. My Guru on all things to do with baking, always maintains, that you only need 14 turns of the spoon to mix a muffin batter.
Store in an airtight container or freeze in ziplock bags.
This mix makes 12 x 80ml capacity muffin tins; or 24 x 30ml mini muffin tins.
