Tested

"I've made these hundreds of times. They never rise into the mushroom cloud shapes you get with shop bought muffins, these are real muffins, made in the real world with tonnes of real fruit :) Having said that, I have changed the recipe significantly to make them lighter without losing any of the fruity wonderfulness. Multiply all of the liquid ingredients by 1 and a half i.e. 3 eggs, 75g melted butter etc etc. Increase the flour and baking powder by the same ratio i.e. 1 1/2 tsp cinammon, 3tsp baking powder etc. Keep all the fruit ingredients the same and in my magazine, it also has 50g chopped pecans. Follow the recipe method in exactly the same way, and you will end with huge muffins, lighter in texture, but packed with all the same amount of fruits. Enjoy :)"
