Sunday bakes - ' Bearing gifts' blueberry muffins

On Monday this week I went for a meal with my boyfriend's family. They're a lovely bunch and it's always a lot of fun. Since you should never turn up empty handed I decided to make some blueberry muffins. If you know me you'll know these are my absolute favourite!

Ingredients
4oz plain flour
4oz butter
2.5oz caster sugar
2 eggs
1.5 tsp baking powder
1 tsp sweet mixed spice
1/2 tsp vanilla essence4.5oz frozen blueberries

Method
Cream the butter and the sugar before adding in the eggs one by one then the spices and vanilla. Sift in the flour and the baking powder and mix thoroughly. 

Spoon half the mixture into about 6 muffin cases and drop the blueberries onto of the mixture. Cover with the rest of the mixture. The cases should be about 3/4 full. 

Bake at 160 for 30 minutes until the muffins are fully risen and golden.
