Kiwi Muffin

A simple and quick Muffin recipe from pre-mix, Aunty Catherine’s Recipe which I bought from Best Baking Solution (USJ 8).

1 packet of pre-mix (500g)

½ tsp of sodium bicarbonate

100g water

3 Grade A eggs

120 butter, melted or vegetable oil

1. Mix well kiwi muffin mix with sodium bicarbonate, water and eggs on low speed for 1 min and then mix for 4 mins on medium speed.
2. Add melted butter or vegetable oil (I used sunflower seed oil) and mix at low speed for 1 min.
3. Gently spoon batter in paper-lined muffin pans.
4. Bake at 210°C in pre-heated oven for approximately 20 minutes till cooked.
5. Cool on wire tray.

 This recipe will yield 24-26 pieces medium-size muffins.

The muffins are colored slightly green, but you need to get used to the black dots, the seeds, it's crunchy if you like them. There’s a slight tart kiwi taste in the baked muffins which I kinda like. I normally use sunflower seed oil instead of butter.

Muffins can be stored in the fridge, well-wrapped to avoid absorbing odors or drying out or becoming soggy. Re-heat in warm oven but it won’t have the fresh crispy out-of-the-oven top crust. For better quality, it’s best to consume within a couple of days.

Usually the lot will last us till afternoon tea the next day only! There's has been no need to store in the fridge.

I like a fresh muffin, still slightly warm from the oven with the crispy top crust. Yummy!
