Apple and Pecan Muffins Recipe by Neven Maguire

These muffins can be wrapped and frozen successfully for up to one month. I’ve used maple syrup instead of sugar, and as there is so much natural sweetness from the sultanas and apples, they actually need very little – it works out at only 1 teaspoon per muffin, which isn’t bad if you fancy giving
