Description

Luscious strawberries and dark chocolate are an unbeatable combination, both visually and flavour-wise!!! This recipe makes 6 large muffins!!

Instructions

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180 deg C.

2. Hull and quarter the strawberries.

3. In a large mixing bowl, measure out the eggs, sugar, oil and vanilla extract and mix with a hand whisk until smooth.

4. In another bowl, measure out the flour and baking powder and mix together.

5. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and combine the two until evenly mixed. Do not overmix the mixture as it will yield tough and dense muffins. Don't worry if the mixture seems a tad dry.

6. Add the dark chocolate and most of the strawberries barring about 3 tbsps.

7. Spoon the mixture into the muffin cases, about 2/3 full of the muffin cases.

8. Take the remaining strawberries and mix with 2 tsps of demerara sugar and scatter this mixture on top of all the muffins.

9. Bake in the pre-heated oven for 25 minutes and do not open the oven door while baking. When done they should have risen and be springy to touch.

10. Remove from oven and leave to cool on a wire rack.
