I love to make healthy muffins for breakfast. Now that I'm on vacation, they're going to become a much more common daily occurence! I used to rely on recipes for muffins, printing off many pages of muffin recipes, all really very similar. There was no need for that. The muffin is the perfect jumping off point for a beginning baker. They're simple, easy, you can put anything you want in them! I'm trying to ease into creating my own recipes, and so far Ive got a pretty good grasp on muffins and granola bars. Yes, I'll definetly be posting some granola bar recipes here!
These muffins are rich tasting, thanks to the sour cream, and they really are pretty healthy! Next time, I plan to substitute honey for the brown sugar. These dont only have to be sunflower seed muffins, you can really put anything you want in them.
