Blackberry Breakfast Muffins

SAVE ✓ SAVED ADD TO MEAL PLAN PRINT VIEW IN SPANISH

I bought the most SCRUMPTIOUS, melt-in-your mouth blackberries at the farmers market yesterday. I was so in love with them that I bought more than usual so that I could to try them in some recipes. Breakfast muffins are a great way to pack in nutrition, and because they freeze well can be a quick easy breakfast. This recipe uses some whole grains and my favorite ingredients, flax and wheat germ. The result is a crazy good muffin that’s high in fiber and nutrition.
