Breakfast muffins with Apricot, Prunes and Raisins

For some reasons I bought a tub of prunes in the cupboard, and it’s been sitting there since forever. I think it’s for a recipe with pork chops…not sure. Anyway J was watching the England match last night, so I thought I’d make something instead of twindling my thumbs!

Here’s how to make them:

You can freeze them too! Just take them out a couple of hours before you need them to thaw.
