Blue Berry-raisins-waltnut Muffins (Egg Less)
By Harini
Today I have a very very healthy n yummy dessert like breakfast for you all.As I said in my previous post,I have been getting requests for easy breakfast recipes,also recipes to deal with fussy toddlers.Toddlers prefer finger food and if we ensure they get their nutrients properly from what they enjoy,then it is surely a win-win combo for us.Muffins fall under toddlers favorite finger food,and this blue berry-raisin-walnut muffin made of whole wheat is very health too,and practically whipped up in 10 minutes.Just prepare the batter,pour n place in the oven,forget it :). Though I am typical idly/dosa person,such sweet delights once in a while for breakfast is of course a welcome change .Try out n let me know :)
