Peach and Ginger Muffins
Photo and muffins by Sophie
These American muffins rise really well, even at high altitude. Incredibly yummy too, so very popular at tea time. You can make them small or large, but small works well for chalet tea and kids. They are inspired by recipes on the Veginity website, which is well worth a visit.
If you don't have measuring cups use a small/medium mug or large teacup.
