Description

A classic recipe reinvented for lasting enjoyment, Glazed Fruit Cake Mix 30-Day Muffins


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cups crushed Weet-Bix (Weetabix)
  • 2 1/2 cups Whole Wheat bread flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 3 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 cup coconut
  • 1/2 cup glazed fruit cake mix
  • 1/2 cup glazed mixed peel
  • 1/2 cup yellow dried sultanas
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups Demerara brown sugar
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence

Instructions

  1. In a big bowl, combine Weet-Bix, bread flour, salt, bicarbonate of soda, and coconut. Stir them together well.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, milk, oil, and vanilla.
  3. Then, pour this mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix.
  4. If you’re baking all the muffins at once, let the batter sit for about 15 minutes to thicken.
  5. Use cupcake liners in your muffin pan for easy cleanup. If not using liners, grease the muffin pan with a cake release spray or oil.
  6. Spoon the batter into the liners, filling them about ¾ full. Bake at 200°C (400°F) for ±25 minutes, depending on your oven
  7. Check if they’re done by inserting a skewer, it should come out clean.
  8. If the muffins are still a bit wet in the center, turn off the oven and leave them inside for 5 more minutes. The heat will finish cooking them.
  9. TIP: The muffin batter can be stored in the fridge in a sealed container for up to a month
