Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 28
• 250 g self-raising flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 pinch salt
• 100 g caster sugar
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 200 ml skim milk
• 1/4 cup canola oil
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 75 g brown sugar

Recipe

• 1 preheat fanforced oven to 180 celcius.
• 2 grease a 12 mini muffin tin.
• 3 for the cinnamon sugar, mix together the cinnamon and the light brown sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
• 4 for the mini muffins, mix the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
• 5 in a separate bowl or jug, mix together the egg, milk and melted butter.
• 6 add the wet ingredients all at once to the dry ingredients and mix briefly until just combined.
• 7 put a 1/2 teaspoon of the batter into each prepared mini muffin cup. sprinkle each muffin with a 1/4 tsp of cinnamon sugar, then spoon some more batter and cinnamon sugar into the mini muffin cup.
• 8 finish with a layer of batter, dividing it evenly. using a fine skewer, swirl the mixture in each mini muffin cup to achieve the marbled effect.
• 9 bake in the oven for 12-15 mins, or until risen and golden. cool in the tin for 10 minutes (the sugar mixture will remain really hot, so don't be tempted to try them sooner), then turn out onto a wire rack.
• 10 serve warm or cold. these can be frozen too!
