Method
- For this Lean in 15 snack recipe preheat your oven to 180°C and line a 12-hole muffin tin with small muffin cases.
- Place all the ingredients apart from 1 teaspoon of the vanilla extract, the cream cheese and the honey in a large bowl and beat with a wooden spoon until fully combined.
- Divide the mixture equally among the muffin cases and slide into the oven. Bake the muffins for 25 minutes, by which time they will be cooked through and a little golden on the top. Leave to cool.
- While the muffins are cooling, whip together the remaining vanilla extract, cream cheese and honey, adding a splash of water to slacken if needed.
- When the muffins are totally cool, spread the cream cheese icing on top.
