• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg

Preparation:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Line or grease and flour one 12 well muffin tin.
• In a large bowl, mix together the oatmeal, egg, oil, milk, and sugar.
• After it is thoroughly mixed, add in the flour, salt, ginger, and baking soda.
• Stir to combine.
• Fold in the gooseberries.
• Divide evenly amount 12 muffin wells.
• Bake 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the center muffin comes out clean.

Note:

• A lot of gooseberries sold in the US are actually unripe. Ripe gooseberries, which are a lot less tart, are reddish, while the unripened ones are green. I used a mixture of both for this recipe.
