Heat the oven to 200c and line a 12 muffin tin with cases. Rub the dry ingredients together with cold hands to make "bread crumbs". Reserve 2 tablespoons of this mixture in a cup, or similar, combined with the brown sugar to make the topping. Beat the sour cream, egg and milk together in a small bowl or jug. Add the lemon essence or zest/juice. Add the extras to the dry, then working quickly combine with the wet ingredients. Spoon into the muffin cases and sprinkle on the topping, get the muffins into the oven sharpish. Bake for 20 minutes, you might need to rotate the tin after 15 minutes if your oven, like mine, has a hot spot.
