As you probably know by now, I love to bake. I am trying out some new muffin recipes as I was elected to bring in pastries for the teachers during teacher appreciation week at the kids’ elementary school. I still love my blueberry muffins, but these are a close runner up!

That looks fantastic!
MMMMmm! I have passed the recipe along to my brother-in-law, just in case I stop by for coffee. I have never had much luck with baking, but I do love to eat! Eating and junking is what I do best! Thanks for sharing.
Peace,

Yum! Anything with raspberries is always a favorite of mine. I picked up some fresh berries today so I can enjoy a muffin with my tea tomorrow. Can’t wait.
Thanks for sharing!
I have to tell you that I made these today and they were just delicious! I wrote about them on my blog – hope you don’t mind 🙂

Okay, did you take that photo? It is fabulous!
My daughter made these and added 1/2 cup pecan pieces and sprinkled a cinnamon-sugar mixture on top of each muffin before and after baking them. They were delicious!!
