Feijoa and Apple Muffins

Yes, another feijoa recipe! I have to use them up! I can't possibly waste them!

This recipe took quite a few and while meant for a cake made amazingly soft fluffy muffins.
I couldn't stop eating them.

What I really liked was that is was pretty much all made in the food processor.
