    I made these to the recipe, using cox's apples chopped. Like other cooks, I found them difficult to remove from the cases. However, there were some left over and when I ate one the next day, there was no problem with sticking. If I make these again, I shall resist the temptation to eat them warm, and let them settle a bit! Interestingly, although I don't ave a particularly sweet tooth, I would have liked them a little sweeter.

    I used white yoghurt, didn't have buttermilk. Worked well, too.

    These made 12 well-risen muffins for me. Good thing too... they're delicious! They had a light scone like quality, and weren't too sweet. I used Granny D's, and I think their taste complimented it. Perfect for a brunch.

    I made these muffins for a dinner party and they went down very well. I did change a few of the ingredients as I didn't have everything. I replaced the buttermilk with wholemilk and plain flour with self raising and left out the baking powder and salt. I cut the apples into very small pieces and added just over a handful of raisins and about a quarter of a teaspoon of cinnamon. I also used cupcake cases. They were lovely and moist on the inside and tasted very yummy!
