Ingredients

  • For the Muffins:
  • 225g plain flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 140g golden caster sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 100ml milk
  • 140g butter, melted and cooled
  • 12 fresh raspberries
  • 12 tsp raspberry jam
  • For the icing:
  • 40g butter, softened
  • 85g icing sugar
  • 1tsp vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tsp milk
  • 12 raspberries to decorate

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 180C. Line a muffin tin with 12 paper cases.
  • Sift together the flour and baking powder into a large bowl. Stir in the caster sugar.
  • Lightly beat the eggs, milk and melted butter together into a separate bowl.
  • Make a well in centre of the dry ingredients and pour in the beaten liquid ingredients. Stir together until just combined without over mixing.
  • Spoon half the mixture into the prepared muffin cases. Place 1 tsp of rasberry jam in the centre of each cup, then place a fresh raspberry on top of the jam. Then spoon in the remaining muffin mix equally between the 12 cases.
  • Bake in the oven for 20-25 mins, until well risen, golden brown and firm to the touch. Leave the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • To make the icing, beat together the butter, icing sugar, vanilla extract and 1 tsp milk until smooth and creamy (add more milk if needed). Place a spoonful of icing on top of each muffin, then top with a fresh raspberry.
