Boysenberry and Lemon Muffins

Boysenberry and Lemon Muffins

Makes 12 muffins

You'll need:

• 2ml cooking spray
• 2 cups white flour
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 lemon
• 1 cup boysenberries, frozen
• 2 tablespoons margarine
• 1 egg
• 150g low-fat yoghurt
• 1/2 cup low-fat milk

Instructions:

1. Heat oven to 190C. Spray a 12 cup medium muffin tray lightly with cooking oil spray.
2. Mix flour, sugar and baking powder together in a medium sized mixing bowl. Grate the rind from the lemon and add to the flour, mix to combine.
3. Add the frozen boysenberries and mix carefully to coat with the dry ingredients.
4. Melt the margarine in a small bowl in the microwave (medium-high power for about 20 seconds). Remove from the microwave and add the egg. Beat lightly with a fork then add the yoghurt and milk and mix well. Make a well in the dry ingredients and carefully add the liquid. Mix carefully until just combined - do not over mix and try not to break the boysenberries. Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin tray, distributing the berries evenly between the muffins.
5. Bake for 15 minutes or until well risen and firm to touch. Allow to cool for at least 10 minutes in the tray before removing and placing on a wire rack to finish cooling.
