We spent the morning in the park in the freezing cold, and then realised that we'd eaten all the cake in the house. Doh.
You'll need:
65g glace cherries, chopped
25g sliced almonds
1.5 teaspoons baking powder
175g plain flour
100g sugar
1 egg, beaten
125ml milk
Chuck the baking powder and flour into a large mixing bowl. You probably ought to sift it, but doing that with a three-year-old is nigh-on impossible, as it just goes everywhere.
Add the sugar, and stir thoroughly. Mash up any sugar lumps and bumps. Add the cherries, and then the almonds, and stir really well. You don't want one person to get all the cherries in their muffin, and someone else to not get any. That could cause a riot.
Mix the egg and milk together in a jug, and then pour in to the mixture. Stir until it's all combined - doesn't matter how lumpy it is.
Put into little fairy cake cases (we road tested the silicon ones against the paper ones this time, and actually the paper ones were better).
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes or so at 180 degrees C. Try not to eat them all at once.
