Stir wet into dry, just until moistened. Stir in fruit and nuts.

Line 18 regular muffin cups with papers, or spray with oil. (Or spray mini muffin pan with oil - you'll make 3 trays total) If you would like to make some of each, you can get 12 regular muffins (1 tray) and 24 mini (1 tray) from this recipe

For regular muffins, place 1/4 cup of batter into each cup. For mini muffins, use 1 tablespoon of batter (use a measuring spoon and flatten the top) Sprinkle flax seeds on top of each muffin.

Bake regular muffins about 20 minutes, and mini muffins about 15, or until golden. Cool 1 minute, then remove to a cooling rack. Serve warm or at room temperature with some yogurt and fruit!
