So why not put your slightly squishy plums to good use with these spiced plum muffins, which are ideal for an 11 o’clock snack or make a tasty pud (especially while still warm from the oven). They’re also super easy!

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180C.
2. In a mixing bowl, add the flour, ground almonds, ginger, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and xylitol and stir through.
3. Add the agave syrup, vegetable oil and soya yoghurt and mix – but not too thoroughly because you don’t want to overwork the mixture. Stir through the chopped plums.
4. In a muffin tray, place 12 muffin cases and spoon the mixture to evenly fill the cases.
5. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes until cooked through. Pop a skewer through one of the muffins and if it comes out clean, they’re cooked.
