Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the muffin cups with oil or cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 1/4 cup of self-raising flour and 3/4 cup of sugar. Stir together until well blended.
In a separate small bowl, lightly beat the egg until yolk and white are well combined.
Add the beaten egg, 1/2 cup of olive oil, and 3/4 cup of milk to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing to ensure your muffins stay light and airy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for about 5 minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your homemade muffins warm or at room temperature. They can be served plain or with a spread of butter, jam, or any topping of your choice.
Tips:
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature before mixing to achieve a smooth batter.
- Do not overmix the batter; stir just until the ingredients are combined to avoid dense muffins.
- Add in your favorite mix-ins like blueberries, chocolate chips, or nuts for a flavorful twist.
- Use an ice cream scoop to evenly portion the batter into the muffin tin.
- Preheat the oven to the correct temperature before baking to ensure even cooking.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
With this basic muffin mix recipe, you can create delicious, fluffy muffins in no time. Whether enjoyed fresh out of the oven or saved for later, these muffins are a versatile treat that can be customized to suit any taste. Follow these tips to ensure perfect muffins every time and enjoy the simple pleasure of homemade baking.
