Overnight muffins

I like this recipe, because you can put the batter in the fridge overnight and then bake the muffins for breakfast! The batter firms up and is easier to handle, so the recipe is especially dyspraxia-friendly. This recipe is for blueberry muffins but you can also mix it up a bit with the flavours, maybe do some with blueberries, or apple, raspberry, chocolate chips, whatever you like.

You will need:
