How to Make Em's Cheese Buttermilk Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 200g self-raising flour, 1 tsp baking powder (if your flour doesn't already contain it), 1 tsp salt (adjust if using US self-raising flour), and 50g grated cheddar cheese.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 150ml buttermilk, 50g melted unsalted butter, and 1 large egg.
  4. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
