Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 200C/gas 6/fan 180C. Butter 6-8 muffin tins or line them with muffin cases. Put the flour, oats, sugar, cinnamon and bicarbonate of soda in a large bowl, then rub everything through your fingers, as if making pastry, to ensure the ingredients are evenly blended.

  • step 2

    Beat the egg, then stir in the buttermilk, vanilla and oil. Lightly stir the egg mix into the flour.

  • step 3

    Fold the prunes and nuts into the mixture.

  • step 4

    Divide between the tins, filling the cases to the brim, then bake for 20-25 minutes until risen and golden. Serve warm or cold.

This is one of my saved recipes - my family loves them! I reduced the sugar to 60g this time and they were plenty sweet enough for us. It made six generous muffins which took 20 minutes to cook.

A good recipe that works. Ive used olive oil and subbed the prunes for a mix of chopped dates and raisins / cranberries to replicate a little tartness I would have got from the prunes. Also used walnuts and mixed seeds for the pecans. It is generally a very sweet recipe. I reduced the sugar by 30%…

Seed oil really isn't good for one, so I substituted for butter
