Strawberry Cheesecake Muffins

It's baking time! These muffins are really easy to make and absolutely delicious...

350g plain flour
1.5 tbsp baking powder
140g caster sugar
finely grated rind of 2 oranges
0.5 tsp salt
2 eggs
250ml milk
85g butter, melted

Filling ingredients:
175g half-fat soft cheese
3 tbsp caster sugar
6 strawberries, halved

- Sift the flour and baking powder into a large bowl, then stir in the sugar, orange rind and salt.
- Beat the eggs and milk in a separate bowl, then stir in the melted butter and gently mix into the dry ingredients to make a loose, slightly lumpy mixture (do not overmix or they will be tough).
- Mix together the soft cheese with the sugar.
- Half fill 12 muffin cases with the muffin mixture, then push half a strawberry into each. Add a teaspoon of sweet cheese, then spoon over the remaining mix.
- Bake for 20-25 mins until golden on top.
