Muffins - Oatmeal Banana Blueberry Apple Walnut


When I'm having  sugar craving melt down, these muffins will calm the beast.  They are very healthy, but don't let that scare you. They are heavy and filling - you only need one, really. They aren't going to be a favorite for someone eating a Standard American Diet, but a vegan will appreciate and enjoy the interesting mix of fruits and nuts. I love that they are sweetened entirely with whole foods, and truly, they are sweet enough to make me happy.

My second batch - They look like they'd be terrible, but they're really good!
And if you are struggling to give up processed sugar, these taste like a gift from the gods!
