GRANOLA MUFFINS
These muffins are ludicrously easy to make. It's just a matter of mixing flour, baking soda and a pinch of salt in one bowl; stirring together buttermilk, an egg, vegetable oil and sugar in another; then combining the two. At the end, fold in some granola, though if you wanted to cut out one step, you could add the granola along with the flour in the bowl of dry ingredients. Bake and eat 20 minutes or so after you've taken them out of the oven. You can even measure out all the ingredients the night before, so all you need to do upon waking is stumble into the kitchen, switch on the oven and stir everything together.

GRANOLA OR MUESLI MUFFINS
Another from Nigella Lawson's Feast cookbook. You can use granola or muesli interchangeably here. There was more batter than I usually get for a 12 muffin recipe so I kept filling up the cups more and filled them nearly to the top with some batter still left over but not much. The muffins did not rise much so I guess this was the right thing to do. These are tasty little treats that are also good for you. Enjoy!

GRANOLA MUFFINS
Great muffin to make for breakfast or anytime. SUPER easy and the kids love it!! I tweaked another recipe that I found posted here...omitting some fat and adding a few other ingredients. They freeze well, too. I used Quaker Natural Granola with Oats, Honey & Raisins because that is what I had on hand. The slivered almonds are really yummy in the muffins. And, I also 'made' my own buttermilk by adding 3 tablespoons of lemon juice to regular skim milk before combining the wet ingredients.

BANANA MUESLI MUFFINS
These muffins are not too sweet and are filled with whole grains. The museli, sucanat sugar, and flax seeds help to lower the glycemic index. As with almost all baked goods, these muffins do not have a low glycemic load, so enjoy them in moderation. For the museli, I like to use Bob's Red Mill. You can substitute the muesli with granola, but it will increase the fat and calories. Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right granola or muesli: Not all granolas and mueslis are created equal. For muffins, you'll want to choose a variety that is high in fiber and low in sugar. Look for granolas or mueslis that contain whole grains, nuts, and seeds.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the muffins will taste. If possible, use fresh fruit, nuts, and spices.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will result in tough muffins. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the batter rest: Letting the batter rest for 5-10 minutes before baking will help the muffins rise and be more tender.
- Bake the muffins at a high temperature: Baking the muffins at a high temperature will help them rise and brown properly. Bake the muffins at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
