Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 Cups flour divided
  • 3/4 Cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 Cup butter at room temperature
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 Cup whole milk
  • 2 Apples peeled, cored and diced
  • 8-10 strawberries diced
  • 2 Tablespoons oats
  • 2 Tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease 12 muffin tins. Or in this case square individual cake tins. I recommend you line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper and grease that as well.
  • In a medium sized bowl sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl combine the brown sugar and oats. Stir and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl cream the butter and sugar. After the mixture is pale and fluffy, add the eggs one at a time mixing until they are incorporated into the batter. Mix in the vanilla extract.
  • Next, add half the flour and stir in gently. Then add all the milk and mix in the remaining flour. **reserve two tablespoons of the flour to coat the fruit**
  • Coat the berries and apples in the remaining flours. Gently fold into batter.
  • Evenly pour the batter into greased muffins tins. Top with the oat and brown sugar mixture.
  • Bake for approximately 15-18 minutes. Insert a toothpick in the center and when just a few crumbs come off, it is done. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool for just a few minutes. Remove from pan after about 5 minutes and let it cool for a further few minutes. This can be served straight away. Will keep up to 3 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
