    Perfect for breakfast, really. Not too sweet, but tasty. Only problem that too much muffin left on the paper cases.

    Really easy to make, my eight year old son did all the mixing, loved the sweet crunchy topping contrasting with the sharpness of the berries. Those of you with a sweet tooth might like to add another tablespoon of brown sugar to the recipe.

    Good, not overly sweet. I'd recommend using greased silicone cupcake cases though as my cakes got stuck in the paper quite a bit.

    Really tasty and quite filling as a breakfast I didnt have any raspberries in the house, but I used raspberry low fat yoghurt instead of plain, and put dried cranberries into them as well as a bit of extra fruit.

    Really good recipe! I used toffee flavoured fat free yoghurt and replaced the raspberries with dates! made it a bit more moist and sweeter.

    These were lovely and moist, but they most definitely need a sweeter touch to them. Frozen raspberries can be really quite tart, and so can apples. I will definitely be making these again, but next time trying them with a sweet, flavoured yoghurt (though ff flavoured yoghurt often has artificial sweeteners in it, and experimenting with them in the past has resulted in some recipes tasting extremely odd!)

    I prepared it already at least 5 times and it became one of our favorite muffins. I use xilitol instead of soft brown sugar. After cooling it's easier to get out of the paper.

    I used even less sugar and they still be sweet and really tasty. also used baking paper instead of paper cases and there was no problem with getting them out. Second day - still tasty and moist though I prefer to eat them when they're warm. Definitely a must do!

    I made these this morning. So quick and fuss free! Do use baking paper because the muffins come out perfectly. I halved the recipe and used just 2 tbsp of oil and it was still very moist. Definitely a keeper!

    I forgot to buy muffin cases, so I just buttered the muffin tray and cooked them - they came out perfectly! They're very tasty and filling, great for breakfast or part of lunch :)
