Cooking temperature 200°C (400°F)	Cooking time 18–20 minutes
ingredients	steps

150 g (5 oz) plain flour

150 g (5 oz) self-raising flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

65 g (2½ oz) light muscovado sugar

3 pieces of stem ginger from a jar, about 50 g (2 oz), finely chopped

100 g (3½ oz) dried cranberries

1 egg

250 ml (8 fl oz) milk

4 tablespoons vegetable oil

Sift the flours and baking powder into a large bowl, then stir in the sugar, ginger and cranberries until well combined. Beat together the egg, milk and oil in a jug.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, then stir gently using a large metal spoon until only just combined. The mixture should look craggy, with specks of flour still visible.
Using a spring-back ice-cream scoop or large metal spoon, divide the mixture among the sections of a paper-case-lined 12-hole muffin tin, piling it up in the centres.
Bake in a preheated oven, 200°C (400°F), Gas Mark 6, for 18–20 minutes, until well risen and golden. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving warm.
