Whole Wheat Berry Muffins
A few months ago, I found some fresh cranberries on sale for $1.99 at Kroger. I kept them in my freezer for a while, periodically adding them to my oatmeal. My intention was to use them in muffins because I love the Vegan Cranberry Muffins at the Sprouts Market. Baking is not really my thing so I was a little reluctant. However, I finally mustered up the courage to give baking from scratch a try, and these were pretty good. Any other first time bakers? Give this simple recipe a try and comment below to let me how your muffins turn out! Note: these are not vegan as they contain eggs. I will try vegan next time...
