Johanna's Raspberry Lime Muffins

It's been a busy week, so it was nice to spend some time in the garden - weeding.  Yes funnily enough, I found the act of weeding quite relaxing today. It was nice to switch off from work stuff and listen to the variety of birds tweeting  and fluttering about in the garden fighting for a chance to perch on the various bird feeders dotted around.  We even have a Great Spotted Woodpecker visiting us on a regular basis.  I sit back and admire how well the allotment garden plot is coming along.  We have begun to harvest broad beans and strawberries. The summer raspberries will soon be ready to eat too and I cannot help but  be embarrassed in the knowledge that I still had some autumn raspberries in the little freezer. 

So I was pleased when Johanna blogged her Raspberry Lime Muffins a few weeks back using frozen raspberry.  It was well timed and gave me the nudge to use them.  

I found these Raspberry Lime Muffins delicious to eat with its sticky top on the day and they were still good on the second day, very light. 

You can find the recipe for Johanna's Raspberry Lime Muffins here.  My only alternation, rather substitution was using diary milk in place of soya milk, which might explain the visual difference - I am always fascinated at how the same recipe can look different when made by different people. I also plopped a frozen raspberry on top before they went into the oven, which may explain the raspberry swirl or burst effect!
