I use a lot of whole wheat flour when I bake, including in my cookie recipes, and cakes. Muffins is a favorite at my house and they too are made with whole wheat and other multi-grain flours, as they are healthy for all of us. I will add just about anything to a muffin recipe and this is just one of those I will bake. Hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think.
