Put the remainig oil and honey into a saucepan and heat until warm and runny. Remove from the heat and stir in the oats and mixed spice until completely coated. Divide the oats between the muffin tin holes, pressing down on the mixture to make a solid base. Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix together the yoghurt, cream cheese, vanilla extract, lemon zest, stevia, sugar and cornflour. Mix the eggs into the cream until smooth. Spoon evenly between the muffin holes ontop of the oats.
Bake for 15 minutes or until just set. (They should still wobble a little.) Set aside to cool to room temperature.
