HEARTY BREAKFAST MUFFINS

Hearty Breakfast Muffins image

I got this recipe from another mom when I was looking for toddler friendly food ideas. These are packed with nuitrition. Another idea I was given was to add pureed veggies (such as baby food) to pancake batter and just add a bit of sugar and cinnamon to hide it.

**This recipe calls for regular size muffin pan so when you make the mini muffins, you need to adjust the baking time. Just watch them and you will see when they are done. They freeze well too.
