Top 24+ marvellous sweet muffin recipes

When it comes to muffin recipes the flavour combinations are endless. From fruits, to nuts and chocolate, just about everything tastes great in muffin form.

To help you narrow down exactly what you feel like, we’ve pulled together a selection of our best recipes from our ultimate blueberry muffins to a classic banana and a gluten free quinoa, fig and maple option. Or for something savoury, try our basic cheese muffin recipe.

Our Test Kitchen tip for the best textured muffins is to use a light hand when combining the wet and dry ingredients. Mix only until the ingredients are just combined and a few flecks of flour remain.
