Toddler friendly Apple Pie Muffins
These muffins are amazingly MOIST (hate that word but had to use it). They are a whole-family favourite and I haven't met one person that doesn't like them. I am yet to try the recipe with different fruit but if you try using other seasonal fruits, let me know how it turns out.
These muffins would be great for baby lead weaning from 7 months (once all allergens are introduced). You could replace the sweetener with a mashed ripe banana or additional coconut yoghurt (please note* babies can only consume honey after the age of 1)
