Method
-
step 1
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the flour, baking powder and caster sugar in a bowl, and mix. Beat together the eggs, soured cream, curd, lemon zest and juice, and butter. Combine the wet mixture with the dry until just combined – make sure you don’t over-mix.
-
step 2
Line a 12-hole muffin tin with muffin cases and divide the batter between them. Bake for 20-25 mins or until golden and risen. To make the crunchy topping, mix together the lemon juice and sugar. Once the muffins are out of the oven, brush liberally with the topping, then leave to cool completely.
