THE BASICS

Prep time: 15 minutes

Baking time: 25 minutes

Tools: Hand beaters or stand mixer, 12 hole muffin tin 

INGREDIENTS

160g (1 cup) fine white rice flour

30g (1/4 cup) tapioca flour

50g (1/2 cup) almond meal (see notes)

1/4 teaspoon baking powder 

1/4 teaspoon baking soda 

1/4 teaspoon fine salt

1/3 cup (80ml) oil 

50g room temperature butter (salted or unsalted)

1 extra-large egg

150g light brown sugar (or half caster and half light brown sugar) 

1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste (optional)

1/2 cup (125ml) Remedy Kombucha Raspberry Lemonade  

125g raspberries, reserve a few for garnish

100g white chocolate chips, reserve a few for garnish

METHOD

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 180C/356F. Either grease or line your muffin tin with 8-10 liners.  

Step 2: Combine the flours, almond meal, baking powder and baking soda in a medium mixing bowl and whisk to combine.

Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, combine the oil, butter, sugar/s and egg.

Step 4: Use a hand beater or stand beater to beat the mixture for 1-2 minutes or until light and foamy. The butter should have incorporated completely into the mixture, with no chunks remaining.

Step 5: Turn the beaters to low and alternate between adding the flour mix and kombucha. Continue until you have used up all the flour and kombucha.

Step 6: Add the raspberries and white chocolate chips to the batter and stir gently to just combine. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin holes, then garnish with the reserved raspberries and white chocolate chips. 

Step 7: Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 8: Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes before removing from the tin. Cool on a wire rack and serve.
