Ingredients 275g Plain Flour 1 tsp Baking Powder 1 tsp Salt (fine grain) 90g Sugar 225ml Milk 2 Eggs 110g Butter zest of two Limes 8 tbsp Belvoir Lime Cordial (which is made with fresh Lemongrass) Instructions Sieve the flour into a bowl and add the baking powder, salt and lime zest. Melt the butter in a saucepan over a low heat and allow to cool. Put the eggs, milk, cordial, melted butter and sugar in a bowl and mix together. Pour the dry ingredients over the liquid and fold in but do not over stir, as this will stop the muffins rising well. Grease your muffin tins well and then fill up the muffin holes with the rest of the muffin mixture. Bake in an oven for about 20 minutes at Gas 6, 400ºF or 200ºC till well risen and brown. Makes 12.
