Well now, after reading the glowing reports on this particular muffin recipe, I think I'll give it a miss.
PS, I don't even like Muffins anyway.

Moderately easy
Don't make this recipe! stodgy, nasty outcome. I suspect that if you reduce the sugar by 100g, and reduce the flour by 250g, it wouldn't be too bed - but as it is , it is truly the worst recipe I have ever seen in the public domain!!! AVOID!!!

Wish I'd read previous review. Not a great success. Very stodgy mixture and not a brilliant result.
