Kiwifruit Muffins
I've been wanting to experiment with putting kiwi in quickbread for a while, so when they finally went on sale, I snagged several to make muffins with. After a lot of searching, I found a few recipes, and combined pieces of those with some of my own ideas to create these muffins. I just tried one out of the oven, and must say that it came out quite well :) I will warn you, though: these are not an overly sweet muffin, so if you're looking for a cupcake wanna-be, this is definitely not it! The diced kiwi lend a bit of tartness that really help to make these unique.
