A friend gave me quite a lot of Nectarines so I decided to put some in these muffins and added some vanilla bean paste. They have a really delicate taste and delicious morsels of juicy nectarine. You could also use peaches in this recipe if you can’t get nectarines.
It is very easy to make these muffins and it’s all made in a bowl so no need to get the stand mixer out for this recipe!
The sour cream thickens the mixture so the fruit doesn’t sink to the bottom and makes a lovely light muffin.
To start pre-heat the oven to 190 degrees centigrade (170 degrees fan) then put the muffin liners/ cupcake liners in a muffin tray.
Weigh all the flour, baking powder and caster sugar into a large bowl.
The add the egg, sour cream, oil, milk and vanilla bean paste.
With a hand whisk mix until smooth and there are no traces of flour.
Fold in the diced nectarine - I kept the skin on them.
Then divide the mixture equally between the liners.
Bake for 30 minutes or until a skewer comes out cleanly.
