Tomato Basil Muffins image

I wanted something bread-y for lunch, something my 15 month old son could (and would) eat, and I have quite a lot of fresh basil in my garden. I used vegetable oil, but I think I might try olive oil next time. Try adding ham or cheese. For those trying to use less fat, substitute no-sugar-added apple sauce for the oil and decrease the sugar by half.
