Light and fluffy, these healthy apple and raspberry muffins are ideal for keeping mid-morning hunger pangs at bay. They are also a healthy alternative to calorific cakes. You can expect a pop of sweetness from the apple and raspberries. As well as a delicate crunch from the porridge oats sprinkled across the top.
There’s nothing better than homemade, especially when they are sweet, lower in calories and moist. This recipe has been through a few incarnations. I played around with ingredients trying to get them to taste as good as a “real” cake.
