- .RZ "BRAN MUFFINS" "Tasty muffins with bran and dried fruit"
- This is a simple New Zealand recipe based on "golden syrup". The muffins
- make a delicious alternative to scones. We eat them buttered, either hot or
- cold. I've added the dried fruit to the original recipe as it makes them
- much more interesting.

- Golden syrup is a very thick sugar syrup that is readily available in
- countries where people drive on the left-hand side of the road,
- but seems to be rare elsewhere. If the
- gourmet section of your supermarket does not carry it, you could try
- substituting some kind of honey, such as sage honey.
