What does this mean?

My most used muffin recipe. I usually leave out the dates, they are lovely without them.

Ingredients

Switch to Cup Measures
  • 50 grams rolled oats (the ones that don't need any proper cooking, I use Quaker)
  • 125 ml milk
  • 75 grams dates (pitless, soaked if they need it)
  • 75 grams flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 66 grams dark brown muscovado sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 65 grams butter (melted and cooled)
  • 1 pinch of salt

Method

  1. Heat oven to 200 degrees C.
  2. Mix oats and milk in a jug, leave them for a bit.
  3. Cut op your dates in little pieces.
  4. Mix flour, baking powder, muscovado sugar, pinch of salt in bowl. Put butter and egg in jug with milk & oats, mix well.
  5. Pour the content of the jug in the bowl, put the pieces of dates in and mix briefly.
  6. Put in paper cases (it makes 12) and bake for about 20 minutes. The recipe states you can keep them, when cooled, in a closed tin. Never tried that ;-)
