Today I felt like making some awesome muffins, but I didn’t want them to be too sweet, so I decided to make up my own version of morning glory muffins, which are usually made with some combination of wheat, cinnamon, apple, pineapple, carrots, raisins, fruit, and coconut. It’s like a cross between carrot cake and bran muffins. My version has bran, oatmeal, cinnamon, raisin,, carrots, pineapple, and blueberries! I wasn’t expecting too much from them, maybe a good afternoon treat, but definitely not a blog post. But after trying them I was so pleased with how they turned out, I just HAD to share them! Seriously, these are some of the best muffins I’ve ever had, and are definitely the best muffins I have ever made up a recipe for. So if I were you I’d get some ingredients, turn on your oven, and start makin’ these babies.
