When I feel the urge to bake up something delicious, I always throw on my apron and reach for my muffin tin. Not only are they easy to make but also perfectly portioned to snack on! There are so many varieties to choose from including blueberry, pumpkin or corn. They all have something in common besides being muffins they make a super tasty treat!
If you’re looking for a unique recipe, try the Steiger Haus Muffins courtesy of the Cumberland Falls Bed and Breakfast Inn located in Asheville, NC. It combines some of my favorite ingredients for a flavorful muffin including pecans, coconut and craisins. So, instead of going for a tried-and-true recipe this time, get creative!
