Fruit and Oatmeal Muffins image

This was a recipe I put together to use up some dried fruit. They are a dense muffin and reduced fat. You can use a sugar substitute to even reduce the calories. I sometimes use an egg substitute, too. These muffins have become so popular with our friends that every time we have a tailgate party or golf get together I must bring them.
