Submitted by micro_ang

"This recipe is from a Family Circle Book 'Baby and Toddler Food', but these muffins are great for kids and adults alike. Very moist and tasty, perfect for picnics or lunch boxes, or just enjoying warm at home. My 2 year old couldn't get enough of them! Store muffins in an airtight container. They can be frozen in sealed bags for up to 1 month."
