Ingredients

1 1/2 cups cake flour, sifted

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon of baking soda

3/4 cup caster sugar

3/4 cup milk

125 grams butter

2 eggs

1/2 teaspoon of vanilla

Preparation

Preheat oven to 200°C. Grease a 12 x 1/3-cup capacity muffin pan. Alternatively, line holes with paper cases. Combine flour and caster sugar in a bowl. Make a well in the center.

For turbo broiler: 150 degrees, preheat for 10 minutes.

Add milk, butter, eggs and vanilla to flour mixture. Using a large metal spoon, stir gently to combine.

Spoon mixture into prepared muffin pan. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Stand in pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
