Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180c.
- In a jug or small bowl, combine buttermilk, vegetable oil, vanilla, melted butter and beaten egg then whisk to combine and set aside (the mixture will look curdled, that's normal).
- In a large bowl place self-raising flour and raw caster sugar and whisk together to combine.
- Add the buttermilk mixture to the flour mixture then fold gently until it's just incorporated - it's important not to overmix.
- Line a 12-hole muffin pan with muffin cases then divide the muffin batter evenly between each hole.
- Bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until a skewer or toothpick inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the pan and place on a wire rack to cool.
Notes
- *Please note that the amount of calories per serve is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- What kind of vanilla to use? I have used vanilla extract for this recipe, but vanilla quality can vary a lot. Essence vs extract and from brand to brand and then there is vanilla bean paste! Use the best you can afford, and the only real difference in using the paste is you will get the little vanilla specs in the batter.
- Need to make your own self-raising flour? Use this ratio: for every cup (150g) of all-purpose flour (plain flour) add 2 teaspoon baking powder and sift together well.
- You can make buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar or fresh lemon juice to 1 cup (250ml) of whole milk, then leave for 5-10 minutes at room temperature until the mixture looks slightly thickened and curdled.
- It's really important that you mix this batter as little as possible. The more it's mixed the tougher they will be. Use as few strokes as you can and try to make each one count by scraping right along the base of the bowl - I find a large silicone or rubber spatula works best.
