Ingredients

70g unsalted butter, melted
100g granulated sugar
175g soured cream
1 large egg
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 lemon, zested
1½ tsp bicarbonate of soda
150g blueberries, fresh or frozen (no need to defrost)
195g plain flour +extra tbsp for blueberries
9 tsp sparkling sugar or demarera(if you don't have sparkling)


  1. Heat oven to 180C/ 160C Fan/Gas 4. Put nine paper muffin cases in a nine-hole muffin tin.

  2. Put the melted butter, sugar, soured cream, egg, vanilla extract and lemon zest into a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric whisk until you have a nice smooth mixture. Add the baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and ¼ tsp salt and beat again.

  3. Put the blueberries in a small bowl and sprinkle over the extra 1 tsp flour. Give them a little shake to make sure they are all coated - this prevents them fro sinking to the bottom of the muffins.

  4. Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl. Add the blueberries and gently mix with a wooden spoon. The batter will be quite thick, which is perfect.

  5. Spoon the batter into the cases, then sprinkle each muffin with 1 tsp sugar.

  6. Bake for 30 - 35 mins until the tops are golden and a skewer or cocktail stick inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Leave to cool in the tin for 10 mins, then carefully lift out of the tin in their cases and leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
