Made a double batch of these for my other half to take to a weekly meeting he attends, & they were a big hit! A big hit here, too, 'cause I set aside 4 of them just for the 2 of us at home! Another time, though, & the batch stays right here ~ Really liked the combo of fruits & nuts in these muffins! [Made & reviewed in New Kids on the Block tag]
