    Sounds yummy , and healthy too. I was wondering if a sugar substitute can be used to replace the honey?  Diabetes in my family.

      I use Organic Coconut Syrup. Or even some Organic Maple Syrup...we don't do sugar at all...just make it less if your not really a sweet eater.....you could also try Stevia....hope it helps...my mum is diabetic. she sometims ests one of these muffins etc...she doesn't have any sugar of course..however she is very careful as it's quite heavily in most processed foods like flour, bread..pastry..etc.....but she tends to cut out the carbs that turn to sugar eg: tubers like potatoes, swedes, turnip, sweet potato...she still eats them but in moderation..have a great day hooe4acure..be blessed,...enjoy..:-) xxx.

      My mums tip is always:..if it's grown out of the ground eg:.beans. salad leaves, cabbage ect,....then it's ok..if it grows under the ground...use in moderation..lol
