10 fat, autumnal figs at 40c each and 400g of  freshly cooked sweet little local  prawns at $9.99 a kg plus creamy, salty feta were some of the goodies that I bought at the market.
Just because.
I love these foods and they were good value.

And they then became the center of RLC today.
Just because.
I had free reign.
Boys chose to sleep in and I went a bit crazy in my pairing of flavours. Originally fritters were going to be the medium for the fig and feta, and then me thinks “Prawns go with feta. Feta goes with figs. Let’s see if prawns go with figs… and feta..and fold them into –  muffins.” Just because.
I wanted a meal in a muffin. Savoury muffins.

Now, savoury muffins need a little herb or spice to lift them.
I had some left over homemade basil pesto. So some of that went in the mix, too. And some was mixed with soft butter to spread onto the fresh hot from the oven muffins.

15 crunchy on the outside and savoury, flavour packed gooey cheese moist in the middle muffins with bursts of figgy sweetness were proudly revealed to boys. They “oohed” and “ahhed” their way through at least 2 “interesting but delicious” muffins with pesto butter. (I did too.)

With measuring out to make the muffins, in the end 15 prawn, feta and fig muffins with pesto butter cost about $10.
