Apple and date muffins
Developed from a very delicious apple and date cake I used to make, but this being an easier recipe to throw together.
These can be eaten hot, cold, by themselves, or even with cream!
And they're fairly low in sugar compared to your typical muffin recipe, but you defo wouldn't notice. The dates add their own 'sticky toffee' sweetness, and I'm happy for my kids to munch away on them.

Cooking Instructions

Begin by adding destoned and chopped (or roughly torn) dates and the apples together with the boiling water and bicarb. Let sit and allow to cool. You can leave this to soak for an hour or so especially if you're dates are quite dry.

Measure dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Whisk together by hand to get some air into it.
- 3
Measure wet ingredients in jug and roughly beat egg into the milk and oil.

Finally, dump all three mixtures together and stir with a spoon till fairly well combined.
- 5
Spoon into a lined muffin tray and bake in preheated fan oven at 180°c for about 20 minutes. They should look well risen and caramel brown when done.

Serve warm, or cold. As a snack by itself or even as a dessert with custard or cream out ice cream!

Strawberry Cheesecake Muffins Strawberry Cheesecake Muffins
These are more of a decadent muffin. They're filled with a yummy cheesecake center, making them seem pretty impressive, but they're actually pretty simple to make and they are so delicious! The initial 5 minutes baking at a higher temperature allows the muffin tops to rise up high, like a bakery muffin, but you could just cook them for a total of 23-24 minutes at 350F instead.
