Super Easy Chocolate Muffin / Lemon Muffin Recipe

muffins_700

I made a double batch of these super gooey muffins by 9am today…that’s how simple they are to make!

I’m going out for lunch so wanted to bake something that didn’t take long. A family friend emailed me this recipe last week and as soon as I read it I knew I had to try it – so today seemed like the perfect day. Muffins are great because they don’t need a lot (or any!) decorating. They’re not the prettiest things I have ever made but their taste sure makes up for it!

Makes 12 large Muffins.

Ingredients for the Lemon Muffins:
  • 200g Self Raising Flour
  • 100g Golden Caster Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 75ml Sunflower Oil
  • 150ml Milk
  • 1/2 tspn Vanilla Extract
  • 12 tspns Lemon Curd

Ingredients for the Chocolate Muffins:
  • 170g Self Raising Flour
  • 30g coco powder
  • 100g Golden Caster Sugar
  • 1 Large Egg
  • 75ml Sunflower Oil
  • 150ml Milk
  • 1/2 tspn Vanilla Extract
  • 12 tspns Nutella

Method:

Pre heat oven to 190°C

  • Mix the dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Mix the wet ingredients in a jug.
  • Pour the wet ingredients over the dry then stir just enough to combine.
  • Place a tea spoon of mixture into to each paper case.
  • Top with 1 tspn of Lemon Curd/Nutella/anything you may wish!.
  • Then top with remaining mixture.
  • Bake for approx 10-15 mins until risen & firm.

Donna also says…

  • When cooled place 4 tbl spoons of Lemon Curd in a shallow bowl & heat in microwave until melted.
  • Put 50g of golden caster sugar in a shallow bowl.
  • Brush the lemon curd on to each cake then dip into the sugar. Voila!
  • For the chocolate version  If I’m feeling really naughty I top them with chocolate butter cream as well! The Nutella in the middle stays gooey & Very delic!

My muffins didn’t rise quite as much as I would have liked and the lemon ones took quite a bit longer to cook. But they both taste delicious!

Thanks to Donna Wood for the suggestion!

(The other reason I made these is that muffins tend to last longer than cupcakes…not sure this will be the case for these as I think they will be eaten pretty quickly!)

Welcome to Sunday Baking! I started this blog at the start of 2013 and it's taken me on a wonderful journey. A lot has changed in the last few years and you will now see more refined sugar free recipes (although don't worry....if you have a sweet tooth I will still be featuring regular sweet stuff too!).
I no longer post every Sunday, but the recipes I do post are 100% worth trying - if you sign up below I will email you every time I add a new recipe!
Happy Baking!
