HEARTY BREAKFAST MUFFINS



Hearty Breakfast Muffins image

Healthy, hearty breakfast muffins. These have a lightly sweet flavor and lots of wholesome ingredients to get your day started. Moist, chewy, and not overly dense. Easily customizable! You can use any flavor of yogurt, but I prefer plain Greek yogurt. Customize with your favorite nuts or seeds, zucchini or squash, cooked sweet potato, raisins or cranberries, etc. Enjoy!

FRUIT & NUT MUFFINS



Fruit & Nut Muffins image

I developed this recipe because I couldn't bear to throw away the nutritious nut solids that are left after I make almond milk or walnut milk. My first batch was tasty and wonderfully moist, but a bit on the heavy side, so I made a few modifications, and came up with a lighter muffin. I'm posting here for others to try, and welcome your feedback and suggestions.
