Introduction

Make 2 dozen, can be mixed and kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. I bake 6 at a time so we can have fresh muffins for a few days. I add whatever fruit is in season, like blueberries, raspberries or strawberries in the summer, and bananas or raisins in the winter.
