Duffins How To #2

I came across another easy teat time treat that is very much worth sharing -  Duffins. A fun muffin doughnut cross with a jam centre. There is no hassle of frying but the fluffy warm doughnut texture can be enjoyed

You will need:

300g self-raising flour

100g caster sugar

pinch of salt

pinch of dry yeast

½ tsp of nutmeg

80ml vegetable oil

1 large egg

175ml buttermilk

1 tsp vanilla essence

About 6 Tbsp jam (strawberry or raspberry work best)
 

For the coating:

• 100g melted butter
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon mixed with ½ cup caster sugar

Method

• Preheat the oven to 180°C  and grease a 6-hole muffin tin. If you make them smaller you would be able to get about 9 duffins in total.

• Put the flour, salt, caster sugar, yeast and nutmeg into a large bowl.
  
• In another bowl, combine the vegetable oil, egg, buttermilk and vanilla extract.
  
  
  
  
• Add to the dry ingredients and mix into a thick dough.

• Place a spoonful of the dough in each muffin hole and make an indent in the centre. Fill each indent with a tablespoon of jam (more if you can manage it) then carefully cover the jam with the dough.

• Bake for 20-30 minutes until firm and golden on top.
• Remove from the oven and put on a wire rack to cool

• When the duffins are cool enough to handle, dip them in the melted butter and then dip in the cinnamon sugar.
