If you saw my Facebook status earlier, you saw that I was making these for breakfast. Today’s breakfast is muffins (see my Monday Menu Planning post) and this was the muffin of choice according to my children. This recipe was originally in the big red Betty Crocker’s cookbook but I changed the few things to fit the way we are trying to eat. Enjoy! 🙂
