This is a really easy muffin mix to make, it doesn’t even
involve any weighing. I had a couple of beautiful pears in my fruit bowl and
thought they would me great in a muffin mixed with a few spoonfuls of my
favorite ginger and lime marmalade. I was right! The flavors work brilliantly
together and the pears make these muffins nice a moist. I had to stop myself
eating them all as they were cooling!

Don’t worry if you don’t have the lime and ginger
marmalade, I am sure they would work just as beautifully with orange marmalade
and a teaspoon of ground ginger. For a bit of extra decadence you can dissolve some sugar
in lime juice and drizzle this on top of the muffins as they are cooling or
before eating!

Ingredients
2 cups of self raising flour
½ cup of sugar
1 beaten egg
¼ cup of oil
1 cup of milk
3 heaped teaspoons of ginger & lime marmalade (or
similar)
1½ large pairs peeled, cored and diced
Ginger and lime marmalade |
Method
Mix all the ingredients together (by hand) in a bowl
without the pear until nice a smooth. Then add the pear.
Add the beaten egg to the other ingredients |
All the ingredients ready for baking |
Spoon into muffin cases or a muffin tray. I use a
silicone tray for ease. This makes 10-12 medium muffins. Bake for 15-20 mins in
a pre-heated oven at 180.
