RED CURRANT MUFFINS
I picked lots of fresh red currants and then wondered what to do with them! I found this on tasteofhome.com but made some slight alterations. I can't stand orange peel so used a few drops of orange flower water instead. I also used self raising flour but, as they didn't rise a huge amount, I suggest you stick to plain flour and baking powder!

RED CURRANT MUFFINS (GLUTEN FREE)
This is a delicious fruit muffin. You can also use blueberries instead of the currants. You can use any gluten free flour mix suitable for cakes or muffins. The total amount of flour in this recipe is 1/2 pound. Usually I use 5 ounces rice flour, 2 ounces potato starch and 2 ounces tapioca starch. You can also use half brown rice flour or sorghum or millet for half of the rice flour. The buttermilk is 150 ml which would be 5 fluid ounces or 1/2 cup and 2 tablespoons.

RED CURRANT MUFFINS
These are the most wonderful fruity summer muffins. I use red currants. Their more tart flavor make these muffins taste so fresh. The meringue topping melts in your mouth and the muffins are still moist. Serve them warm and the berries with all their juices will pop in your mouth.

Steps:
- Grease muffin cups and place the in the freezer until use.
- Preheat oven (360°F, 180°C).
- In a bowl mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and currants; set aside.
- In a large bowl beat the egg slightly. Add sugar, vegetable oil and buttermilk and mix thoroughly.
- Add flour-currant mixture and stir just until combined. Batter will be sticky.
- Divide batter equally among the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Meanwhile prepare the meringue topping. Beat egg whites and salt with a mixer on high speed until foamy and soft peaks are formed, then gradually add powdered sugar and beat until meringue is stiff. At last fold in the currants carefully.
- When muffins are done, remove from oven. Spread the meringue topping on each muffin. Put the muffins back into the oven and let the meringue topping dry out for about 5 - 10 minutes. The meringue topping should be white or only slightly brown.
- Remove muffins from oven and let cool down in muffin cups for 5 - 10 minutes. Then remove the muffins from the cups and serve warm or let cool down completely.
- NOTE: You can replace red currants by black currants or other small berries.
