Cake of the Week: Damson (or Plum) and Cinnamon Muffins

Cake of the Week

Damson (or Plum) and Cinnamon Muffins

This week we have chosen Damson and Cinnamon Muffins, perfectly balancing fruity sweetness with a warming spice kick.

If you can’t get hold of damsons, don’t worry – ripe, juicy plums make a fantastic substitute, so you can easily swap between the two depending on what’s growing in your garden or what you can pick up in the supermarket. Muffins are wonderfully simple to make, meaning even beginners can enjoy success in the kitchen. Soft, moist, and packed with flavour, they’re ideal for breakfast, an afternoon pick-me-up, or even a dessert. And if you’d like to see just how straightforward muffin baking can be, watch Delia’s Cookery School lesson on Muffins on this page, where she’ll guide you step-by-step through the process.

Whether you use damsons or plums, this recipe is one to come back to time and time again!
