They contain no refined sugar so aren’t too sweet, unlike bought varieties which can contain far too much sugar.  They are easily converted to non-dairy by replacing dairy yoghurt with soya or coconut yoghurt. They can be stored in a sealed container for up to 3 days.

  • Heat oven to 180°C/160°C fan and line a 12-hole muffin tin with 12 large muffin cases. 
  • In a jug, mix the eggs, yogurt, oil, apple sauce, banana, honey and vanilla. 
  • Tip the remaining ingredients, except the seeds, into a large bowl, add a pinch of salt and mix to combine.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix briefly until you have a smooth batter – don’t overmix as this will make the muffins heavy. 
  • Divide the batter between the cases. 
  • Sprinkle the muffins with the extra oats and the seeds. 
  • Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and well risen, and a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean. 
  • Remove from the oven, transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool.
