Muffin

Ingredients

  • 2 Eggs
  • 125ml Merris Red Palm Oil
  • 250ml Semi-skimmed Milk
  • 250g Golden Caster Sugar
  • 400g Plain Flour
  • 3 tablespoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 100g Chocolate Chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C. Line two muffin trays with paper cases. In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat 2 eggs for about 1 minute until slightly frothy.
  2. Pour in 125ml red palm oil and 250ml semi-skimmed milk. Mix just until combined. Then add 250g golden caster sugar and whisk until smooth.
  3. Sift in 400g plain flour, 3 tablespoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. Gently stir everything together until just blended. Don’t overmix or the muffins might turn out dense.
  4. Mix in 100g chocolate chips.
  5. Spoon the batter into the cases, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 20–25 minutes until they’re puffed up, golden, and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  6. Let the muffins sit in the tray for a few minutes, then move them to a wire rack to cool completely.
