This recipe is adapted from Whole Foods Morning Glory Muffins. When baking or cooking, I generally use what is available in my pantry or fridge, and then follow the recipe loosely. Jean, the Seed Scatterer, mentioned the whole grain muffins she had at a restaurant and they sounded so good I was determined to duplicate them. Next time I bake these muffins I will add some bran and cornmeal, for a grainier texture. These are good just as they are, but who doesn't like to experiment in the kitchen ?
