We all know breakfast is the most important meal of the day. Start the morning right with these Oatmeal Granola Breakfast Muffins. Make up a batch of these breakfast muffins and freeze some for a quick on the go healthier breakfast option.
This Breakfast Muffin It is packed full of old fashioned oats and my Pineapple Blueberry Granola. You can use any granola that you have on hand or you can make your own homemade granola or try my Apricot Sunflower Granola with it.
The best tasting homemade muffins always have brown sugar in them. It helps make the muffin texture soft and tender.
The cinnamon and small amount of nutmeg really add a nice spice flavor that goes perfect with the oatmeal and granola. These breakfast muffins are dense but tender and are filling.
