Raspberry and Banana Muffins (with British Lion Eggs)

7.31.2015

I have forever been using this recipe for making my most trusted popular muffins since the days of university. I guess it is time to share my secret, not only it taste fabulous, it is also healthy. The raspberry can also be changed to other type of berries, equally delicious too.

When choosing to buy eggs, I always go for eggs that has been stamped with British Lion mark. This is a mark that can be stamped onto eggs by producers who are signed up to its Lion Quality Code of Practice. When you see the Lion logo on the egg shell or box, it means that the hens are British and have been protected against salmonella and that there is full traceability of hens, eggs and feed. And British Lion egg producers also print a "best-before" date on every single egg to ensure freshness.
