Ingredients:
150g sultanas
1 large orange (for zest only)
100g softened butter
125g caster sugar
2 large free-range eggs
3 large or 5 small very ripe bananas (i.e. speckled black)
200g Self Raising Flour
1 level half teaspoon Baking Powder
2 tblsp golden syrup
METHOD:
- Preheat oven to 160 degrees C
- Cream together butter and sugar in a large bowl with a wooden spoon until light and fluffy.
- Break in an egg and beat until completely combined, then break in the other egg and do the same.
- Add the sultanas and zest of the orange and stir well.
- Mash the bananas to a pulp in another dish, then stir them into the mixture.
- Sift the flour and baking powder together into the bowl, then gently fold it in until there are no pockets of flour remaining.
- Spoon the mixture into 12 muffin cases in a muffin tin.
- Bake for 25 minutes at 160 degrees C, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean and the tops are golden brown and fragrant.
- Remove from the oven and leaving them in the tin for a few minutes, brush the top of each muffin with a little golden syrup, just enough to give it a shiny gleam.
- Allow to cool a little longer, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Or start to eat them as soon as is bearable without sustaining burns, which is how we usually do things around here.
