BLUEBERRY WALNUT WHEAT MUFFINS

February 15, 2013

What AREN’T muffins good for? I eat them as breakfast. Snacks. Brunch. Dessert even. Does everyone else go through cycles with breakfast? I Am only in the mood for certain foods when I wake up. Some days cereal sounds great and other days I want nothing to do it. Sometimes I am all about savory. But baked goods? Almost always am I down for a good baked carb. Donuts, muffins, pastries, paczkis (is that not a donut?), cinnamon rolls.

These keep me a little healthier, though. As I warned David, as I passed along a plastic bag full of these, “eat with a healthy snack mentality.” If you are expecting something dessert-y, you will be sorely disappointed by these whole wheat goodies.
