Ingredients
2 cups Self raising flour
1 tsp Ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp Ground nutmeg
1/2 cups Almond meal
3/4 cups Caster sugar
1 cup Sultanas
1/2 cups Raisins
1 cup Natural greek yoghurt
3/4 cups Vegetable oil
1/4 cup number Saunders Malt Extract
2 Eggs
Glaze
2 tbsp Brown sugar
2 tbsp Saunders’ Malt
2 tbsp Water
Cross
1/4 cups Icing Sugar
1 tsp Water
Directions
- Pre-heat the oven to 160°C and line a muffin tin with paper liners. Set to one side.
- In a large bowl sift together the flour, cinnamon and nutmeg. Stir through the almond meal, caster sugar, and dried fruit.
- In a separate bowl or jug, combine the yoghurt, vegetable oil, Saunders’ Malt Extract and eggs. Whisk to combine.
- Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined – don’t over mix or you’ll end up with tough muffins! This mixture is not runny, so don’t worry if it seems thick.
- Spoon the mixture evenly into the liners of your prepared tin. Bake for 25 – 30 minutes, turning half way, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of your muffins comes out clean.
- Glaze your muffins while they’re still hot. Add the brown sugar, Saunders’ Malt Extract and water to a small saucepan and heat over low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Use a silicone brush to glaze the tops of your muffins. Allow to cool completely.
- For the cross, combine the icing sugar and water, and use a spoon to drizzle the icing in a cross shape on top of your muffin.
- Makes 12 muffins or 18 cupcake sized muffins. Store in an airtight container for 3 days.
