Serves: 12

Ingredients:

85g / 3 oz unsalted butter
210g / 7 1/2 oz all-purpose (plain) flour, sifted
1/2 tsp baking soda (bicarbonate of soda)
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
100g / 4 oz superfine (caster) sugar
225ml / 8 fl oz buttermilk
1 large egg
200g / 7 oz fresh blueberries
salt
3 tbsp icing glaze, to drizzle (optional)

Method:

Preheat the oven to 400ºF / 200ºC / Gas Mark 6 and place muffin papers into a 12-hole muffin pan. Melt the butter in a small saucepan, then set aside to cool slightly.

Place the sifted flour, baking soda (bicarbonate of soda), baking powder, and cinnamon in a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the sugar and a pinch of salt and stir again.

Whisk the cooled melted butter, buttermilk, and egg together in another bowl, then pour this mixture into the dry ingredients and deftly mix, but don't over mix. Fold in the blueberries and spoon the batter into the muffin papers. Bake for 20 minutes. Leave to cool, then drizzle with icing glaze, if liked.
