    I'm just wondering if you swapping the marmalade for lemon curd and the orange for a lemon would work. Anyones thoughts?

    Really really nice, I used all plain flour, but I think half wholemeal half plain flour would be better!

    Made these today and they were scrummy you wouldn't think they were low fat!! My brother absolutely loved them and he doesn't do low fat foods!! They had a lovely consistency and they looked the part with the jam oozing out! Definitely be making these again!!!

    These are wonderful. Made them gluten free by just substituting the normal flour for self raising gluten free. Used gluten free porridge oats too and everything turned out fine with great texture and taste

    These little babies have just gone down a storm! I used 75g wholemeal flour, 100g plain (and I only had a medium egg) and they turned out lovely! Polished off by a 1 and a 4 year old, a daddy who doesn't do low fat, and I loved having a treat with a smidgen less guilt!

    Made the marmalade muffins the other day, and so impressed I did these again this time with Blue Berries,and just as good I also cut down the sugar content to see if the family would notice and they didn't. All in all a good result.

    Made them again today. Substituted orange for 1and a half lemons and swapped marmalade for lemon curd. Did this last week and they were lovely! Today I forgot to put the oil in and the turned out fine! Perhaps I will leave the oil out every time I make them....
