Notes

Once wrapped, these muffins keep well in the freezer for up to 3 months. Allow to defrost overnight in the refrigerator and gently warm in the oven (if possible) at 160°C/140°C fan for 6-7 minutes before eating.

If you don't have buttermilk, make your own by adding 1 tsp of white vinegar or lemon juice to every 100ml of milk you need.
