PEELS-INSPIRED BUCKWHEAT AND OAT BRAN ROSEMARY LEMON MUFFINS
I was inspired to develop this muffin recipe in an attempt to recreate this really delicious (and healthy!) muffin I tried in NYC's East Village at a fabulous little spot called Peels. If you like muffins, but generally avoid them knowing how unhealthy they tend to be, try these. They're unique, easy to make, and you can definitely feel good about eating them. They also freeze well, so you can have a tasty and healthy breakfast option on-the-go... just pop one in the microwave for 40 seconds. :o)
