Very yummy. Much lighter in texture than I was expecting. The feijoa taste is quite subtle, and the lime compliments it perfectly. The only change I made was to the oven temp. I felt 220 was a bit too hot, so I reduced it to 200, and cooked for slightly longer. It made exactly 12 muffins. Definitely a keeper, I'm taking them to my Mum tomorrow, she's a big feijoa fan so I'm sure she'll love them too.
