Notes

Hint

Wrap muffins individually and freeze for a lunch box snack Variation. Any unsweetened fruit juice maybe used. Use apples, blueberries or other firm fruit to vary the flavor. Make 12 muffins and 1 loaf, by spooning half the mixture into a greased loaf tin. Bake the loaf in the middle of the oven for 35 minutes or until firm and golden brown. Bake near the top of the oven for 18-20 minutes.
