Honey Nut Fruit Muffins Recipe

Honey Nut Fruit Muffins Recipe

  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup chopped pitted dates
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 oranges, zested and juiced
  • 3 Granny Smith apples – peeled, cored, and shredded
  • 1 cup chopped seedless green grapes
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 3 cups self-rising flour
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 18 muffin cups, or line with papers.
  2. Mix the water, honey, dates, and baking soda together in a saucepan, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the dates are soft, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, and allow to cool. When cool, pour the mixture into a mixing bowl, and combine with orange juice and zest, shredded apples, grapes, cinnamon, and walnuts; stir to combine. Mix in the flour, and spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
  3. Bake until set and golden brown on top, 25 to 30 minutes.
