How to Make Ginger Date Muffins

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 200g all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon baking soda.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 100g golden syrup until well combined.
  4. In a large bowl, cream together 100g softened unsalted butter and 150g granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  5. Gradually beat in the dry ingredients (from step 2) and the wet ingredients (from step 3) until just combined. Gently fold in 200g pitted dates, chopped into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
