Butter
METHOD
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C and line a large 6-holed muffin tray with large muffin liners.*Chef’s Tip: A 12-holed muffin tin can be used instead to make 12 medium-sized muffins.
2. In a mixing bowl, sieve the White Star Super Maize Meal, self-raising flour and salt, if using. Stir in the yoghurt and oil.*Chef’s Tip: Alternatively substitute the yoghurt for amasi.
3. Add your chosen flavour’s ingredients to the muffin batter and stir until well combined.
4. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop 3-4 scoops of batter into each muffin liner. *Chef’s Tip: Dip your scoop into warm water to make filling the muffin liners easier.

6. Serve warm with a generous spread of butter and ENJOY!
