Best Muffin Recipes: Wheat Germ Oat Muffins

little Indiana and family love to try new muffin recipes–and the kids in particularly were wild over these Wheat Germ Oat Muffins!

What can I say? We are not a cereal eating family. There’s just nothing better than hot, homemade food in the morning (okay, except maybe cold pizza!).

Kid #1 has added these Wheat Germ Oat Muffins to his list of all time faves, the recipes he asks for again and again. With all this  healthiness, they are a fave of mine, too. From 250 Best Muffin Recipes by Esther Brody, 1999. Love!
