I make a weekly batch of these muffins as they are yummy and great to freeze for a quick and easy snack.
They do contain sugar but do not have any artificial colourings or hydrogenated fats like store-bought packaged biscuits and pastries.
Hydrogenated fats or trans fas are bad fats. Hydrogenation is a process that turns healthy oils into solids and can be found in deep-fried foods, cakes and biscuits, pastries and pies. They raise your cholesterol and your risk of heart disease.
