munrotti, just in case I ever needed/wanted to do so I've kept the following.....

"make all my muffins with oil instead of butter now.My rule is for every 50g butter use 40ml oil. I use rice bran or canola oil now as it is apparently healthier but I guess you could use olive.

I suggest that you try doing a search here on this Trademe MB using muffins (or cupcakes) as the Keyword(s) and Anytime as the Date posted option and if you can't find one that uses oil instead of butter, then try the above.

Hope that helps.:-))

You could replace the blueberries with sultans

Blueberry Muffins jo segar
Ingredients

2 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup Chelsea Caster Sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup oil
1 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 1/2 cups blueberries

Method

Preheat oven to 200°C
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl until just combined and moistened. Don’t over mix or the muffins will be tough and not rise evenly.
Spoon into well greased deep muffin tins. Bake for 15 – 18 minutes. Cool on a wire rack
makes 12 muffins
