Almond, Strawberry and Lime Muffins

Tonight, in anticipation of Movie Monday, I have rustled up a batch of muffins. I have no idea if these flavours will work, but time will tell. But they do look good next to my verdant llama - it's not often I get to use the words 'verdant' and 'llama' in the same sentence, but today is one of those days.
In a large bowl mix together:
300g self-raising flour
75g ground almonds
220g caster sugar
zest of 1 lime

In a small bowl mix together:
90g melted butter
half cup sour cream
juice of one lime, made up to a quarter cup with milk
2 large eggs

Mix the wet into the dry then stir in:
three quarters cup diced fresh strawberries
quarter cup flaked almonds

Divide the mixture between 12 muffin cases
Bake on Gas 5/6 for 20-25 minutes
Leave in the tin for a few minutes before moving onto a wire rack to cool

Best served with company and a great movie!
