Redcurrant Muffins

 Makes 12 muffins - we weren't too sure about redcurrant muffins but they were duly declared delicious!

• 60g unsalted butter
• 175g plain white flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 120g caster sugar
• 1 large egg
• 120ml milk
• 125g fresh redcurrants
• Preheat oven to 180°C. Melt butter
•  Sift flour, baking powder, salt and all the sugar apart from 2 tbsp - save this to sprinkle over top before cooking
•  Beat egg and whisk in milk and melted butter. Add to flour mixture; stir then fold in redcurrants
• Fill muffin cases, filling each slightly more than half full. Sprinkle reserved sugar over batter in each cup.
•  Bake in a preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and a wooden skewer or knife inserted in the centre comes out clean.
