Ingredients:

160g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 egg
20g caster sugar
20g clear, runny, honey
60ml orange juice (with bits)
60ml milk
50g butter, melted and cooled
50g dried apricots, chopped

Method:

Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Meanwhile, in a large bowl whisk together the egg, caster sugar, honey, orange juice, milk and melted butter.

Sift the dry ingredients onto the egg mixture then quickly fold together with a metal spoon (do not beat or whisk the mixture as this will force out the air and will give the batter an uneven appearance). Lightly fold in the dried apricots then divide the batter between 6 large muffin cups or cases, filling them no more than 3/4 full. Immediately transfer to an oven pre-heated to 200°C and bake for 20 minutes, or until lightly browned.

Allow the muffins to cool until warm and serve immediately with a mug of good coffee.
