California Prune & Florida Grapefruit Muffins
We’ve partnered up with Florida Grapefruit to create a brand new and delicious muffin recipe. This collaboration enabled Peter Sidwell to work his magic and combine the distinctive flavours of both fruits within a simple treat for you to enjoy. By using our California Prunes and Florida Grapefruit, Peter was able to reduce the fat by 50% but still keep it super tasty!
