Wholesome. Delicious. Ideal for an Autumn Mother's Day breakfast. Oats, honey, pumpkin and warming spices, including cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg - a treat packed with protein. Amazing with a steaming pot of Woodford.

You could really go crazy with add-ins here. After stirring in the flour and oats, gently fold in up to ¾ cup chocolate chips, chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts, and/or some chopped dried cranberries or crystallised ginger.

These muffins are great on their own, with a pat of butter, or spread with almond butter. They would also be fantastic with homemade pecan butter or coconut butter.

MAKE IT VEGAN: Use maple syrup, flax eggs and non-dairy milk.
