I am now chuffed with myself as i just made muffins (with the above recipe except i put blueberries in as well) and hot cross buns, all sugarfree! I was thinking "oh no!" when i remembered you have to glaze the hot cross buns on top, then i hit on the idea of squeezing an orange and microwaved the juice to reduce it - nice and sticky and no added sugar
This is something I've played with a lot around here, but we have a HUGE problem. My girls react to fruit... more than a whole apple is too much to them in a day. We can only have pears, apples and mangos for Matilda as any other fruit causes runs and behavioural issues, for JJ we can have more fruits but bananas and pears cause the explosive runs. So I'd have to bake with 2 apples or 1 apple and 1/2 a mango.... and that scares me
But if you put all of that into a mix that makes 12 muffins and give them one muffin they're only getting one 12th of it - i bet you could mess with the amounts so that a muffin wouldn't make them feel ill or give them behavioural issues and they would still be able to have fresh fruit too, kwim? Or you could even make mini-muffins with it to make it even less that they were getting?
