If you like fresh baked muffins in the morning, then this would be the perfect recipe for you. You can prepare the batter in your leisure and it can be kept in the refrigerator for up to one week and the muffins can then be cooked as you require them. Also these little beauties can be frozen for up to 2 months perfect for lunchboxes (just take them out in the morning and they will be defrosted by lunchtime) or if you like them warm, take them out of the freezer and pop them in the microwave for a short time and serve warm.

Time 45m

Yield 18 Muffins

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups cereal, Sultana Bran
3/4 cup boiling water
2 2/3 cups self-raising flour
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
1/2 cup natural yoghurt
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup apricot, soft and juicy chopped
1/2 cup chocolate chips, milk

Steps:

  • Place the cereal in a medium bowl and pour over boiling water. Stand for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, sift the flour, sugar and cinnamon into a large bowl. Make a well in the centre.
  • Whisk eggs, buttermilk, yoghurt and oil in a large jug until combined and pour into flour mixture with the cereal mixture. Stir to just combine. Stir in apricots and Choc Bits.
  • Pour mixture into an airtight container and refrigerate overnight or for up to one week.
  • On day of serving ~ line 16 holes of 2 x 12-hole muffin pans (1/3-cup capacity) with paper cases. Divide mixture among paper cases. This recipe will make 16 x 1/3-cup muffins, 7 x 3/4-cup Texas muffins or 42 x 1 1/2- tablespoon mini muffins.
  • Cook in a moderately hot oven (375 F) for about 25 minutes, or until cooked when tested.
  • Serve warm or cold.

Tips:

  • For perfectly moist muffins, make sure not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dense muffins.
  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda for the best results. Old baking powder and baking soda can result in flat, dense muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups about ⅔ full. Overfilling the cups can result in muffins that overflow and make a mess in your oven.
  • Bake the muffins at the correct temperature for the right amount of time. Underbaked muffins will be gooey and raw in the center, while overbaked muffins will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before storing them. This will help them to keep their shape and texture.
  • Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
