This is a great, healthy muffin that’s so much better for you than a regular muffin. When I started creating recipes or this website I wanted to make food that people found familiar but healthier.
his takes that a step further than the previous Blueberry Muffins posted on the website because of the higher fiber content. One taster said that these “are so much better tasting than the original.” That’s what great food is: good food that just happens to be better for you.
