Pinch of Nom’s air fryer white chocolate and blueberry muffin recipe
Have you ever used your air fryer to bake before?
“These fluffy, berry-licious muffins will have you coming back for seconds (or thirds!)” says Kate and Kay Allinson from Pinch of Nom.
“We’ve folded an ultra-sweet combination of white chocolate chips and tangy blueberries into our low-fat sponge, and kept things delightfully moist by beating the egg with fat-free yoghurt, reduced-fat spread and skimmed milk.
“Luckily, one batch of this speedy recipe makes 12 muffins, so there should be plenty to go around – plus leftovers that you can keep in an airtight container to sweeten up your week. They’re perfect as a grab-and-go breakfast or cuppa-time snack!”
White chocolate and blueberry muffins
Ingredients:
(Serves 12)
200g self-raising flour
1tsp baking powder
3tbsp granulated sweetener
50g reduced-fat spread
1 medium egg
125g fat-free natural yoghurt
100ml skimmed milk
50g white chocolate chips
100g fresh blueberries
Method:
1. Sift the flour and baking powder together into a mixing bowl. Stir in the sweetener.
2. Put the spread in a small bowl and pop in the microwave for a few seconds to melt.
3. In a separate jug, beat the egg, yoghurt, milk, and melted spread together.
4. Working quickly, make a well in the flour and pour in the wet ingredients. Add the white chocolate chips and blueberries and fold everything together with a spatula, until just combined.
5. Spoon into the silicone muffin or fairy cake cases. Place into the air fryer basket and air-fry at 160°C for 12 minutes, until risen and golden. To check if they are cooked, a skewer inserted into the centre of the muffin should come out clean. You may have to cook these in batches, depending on the size of your air fryer.
6. You can freeze these, once cold, in airtight freezerproof containers. Defrost and eat cold, or warm through in the microwave for a few seconds.
