1. Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6 and put 8 muffin cases in a muffin tray. Mix the flour, baking powder and sugar in a large bowl, add the melted butter, soured cream, eggs and lemon zest and beat just long enough to give a thick, smooth mixture - don't over-beat. Carefully stir in the fruit and finally the sparkling water, until just evenly combined.
2. Divide the mixture between the muffin cases - they should be nice and full. Sprinkle generously with the sugar and bake for 25-30 mins or until risen and golden. The muffins are best served just warm. Will keep fresh in an airtight container in a cool place for 1-2 days.

  Gorgeous recipe! Made these twice this week. Couldn't get peaches so used mango both times. Forget to get a lemon 2nd time so used tbsp lemon juice instead. Recipe gave 11 muffins 1st time & 12 2nd (probably used more mango). No chance of keeping them a couple of days - dissappeared on day 1 both times!

  I made these and I found them very heavy and gooey, not one I would try again.

  I make muffins nearly every week, they were light enough but they are just rather bland, the mixture made 12 large muffins easily and would probably have made four more if I had another tin, all that fruit bulks it out!
