These are absolutely wonderful!!! I love the addition of the topping. The only change I made was...I didn't have raisins...so I used dried organic cranberries, which lent a lovely hint of sweet. I am not a fan of muffins, however this recipe is going to be in my rotation. Thank you for posting, Rainbow!

My name's Fi, I'm 23 and I'm at uni atm in my final year studying Philosophy and Literature. I love reading and writing, and hope to do a postgrad course in Folklore and Creative Writing. I'm kind of obsessed with fairy tales, especially Hans Christian Andersen, and I'm a total Harry Potter geek! I love cooking, and I'm also kind of a health freak so I like adapting recipes to make them more healthy, although I love to cook food for other people too. I don't really eat dairy (I had an intolerance when I was younger), and have recently developed a reaction to wheat so I like being creative with what I cook!
