How can one go wrong when a recipe calls for raisins right up front! [Well, as a matter of fact, one can, but that's another story!] Anyway, I did this recipe up with chopped mango & almost 3/4 cup of chopped nuts. The resulting, very nice tasting [though unusual], nuffins didn't last 24 hours in this house! Thanks for the great recipe!

...or Fuyu persimmon. This recipe seemed open to choice for some ingredients. So I used up the last of my Fuyu's. I also used 1 cup whole wheat flour with 1/3 cup quick oats. I added 1/2 tsp ground cloves & 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg to compliment the fuyus. I used buttermilk instead of milk. I used honey and golden raisins and pecans. I thought they would rise much more than they did so filled extra muffin tins about 24, 3/4 full. They didn't rise much. They turned out soft and slightly chewy. They aren't very sweet. Much better after sitting for a day. Thanks for the recipe to play with.
