Brought a dozen to my husbands work and got rave reviews. Substituted peanuts, sunflower seeds and raisins with pecans, salted pumpkin seeds (omitted the salt in the recipe) and dried cranberries. Baked for 18 minutes, thanks for a great recipe using up granola!

Very fluffy and fragrant, love muffins with nuts, chocolate and raisins, and this recipe is not an exception.

These muffins are dense, moist, flavorful and filling. Also, a great way to use up stale granola sitting in your pantry. Thanks for a great recipe, Calee.

Ooh . . . these are sinfully good. I didn't have any peanuts so I threw in some walnuts. I also had a little cherry pie filling left from another recipe so I rinsed off the cherries, chopped them up and threw them it for a pretty burst of color.
