Orkney Fudge and Apple Muffins
A firm favourite in our online store is the Orkney Fudge. To create a classic autumn bake, we have combined our Orkney Fudge with a crisp apple to give us these delicious apple and fudge muffins.
This easy muffin recipe is quick to prepare and big on flavour.
Makes 12 muffins
Preparation Time: 45 mins
Ingredients:
225g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
70g Orkney Fudge
2 Pink Lady apples
1 medium egg
200g golden caster sugar

- Thinly slice one of the apples and then dice into small chunks - add to the dry mix. Slice the remaining apple and set aside to top the muffin.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the egg and sugar. Whisk in the melted Orkney Butter followed by the soured cream.
- Stir the wet mixture into the dry one, folding until the batter comes together.
