3/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup butter, melted and cooled slightly
1 egg, lightly beaten

1 1/2 cups fresh red currants
For the streusel topping
1/2 cup sugar

Combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder in one bowl. In another small bowl, combine melted butter, milk and egg. Mix this with flour mixture. Fold in currants. Fill muffin cups right to the top, and sprinkle with crumb topping mixture.
