Pear, Nutmeg and Lime muffins

Jack would say the lime was a step too far, but then they aren't even out of the oven yet, so time will tell and the proof of the pudding will deifinitely be in the eating later this evening - if we can wait that long.

This time I stirred 375g self raising flour, 220g caster sugar and about half a teaspoon of nutmeg, together in a large bowl.
then I mixed together (in a small bowl) - 90g melted butter, a quarter of a cup of milk, half a cup of sour cream and 2 large eggs fresh from the hens, then grated in the zest of one lime.I then put the wet into the dry, and stirred together.
Add 1 cup of chopped pears (I used tinned ones)
Then divide the mixture evenly between the 12 muffins cases in a muffin tray
and bake for 20-25 mins on gas 5/6

I'll let you know who was right - lime or no lime!

Times up... the ticker has tocked, they look delicious, better get them out onto the cooling tray - wow they look yummy, maybe they'll not make it to your bbq tonight Shirley
