I love baking with my one year old. Not that she does very much of the actual baking, at the moment, but just having her there next to me in her kitchen – knowing that she’s taking in what I’m doing – brings me such joy.
This is a very, very easy muffin recipe (easier even than all of those recipes that say they’re the easiest ever!) and toddlers that are slightly older than mine will be able to join in easily.
This recipe uses frozen summer fruits, but really any frozen berries will do. This makes it perfect for clearing out those bits from the freezer! And means you’re more likely to have the ingredients to hand when you fancy doing some baking together.
Best Ever Fruit Muffins
Ingredients
- 50 grams unsalted butter softened
- 70 grams caster sugar
- 1 egg

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees celsius.
- Cream together the sugar and butter until fully combined.
- Beat in the egg, then stir in the milk.
- Fold through the flour, then mix through the fruit. If the mixture is very wet, add a tablespoon more flour.
- Put six large muffin cases or 12 fairy cake cases into a muffin pan. Spoon the mixture evenly into the cases.
- Cook for approximately 20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean.
