Almond Spiced Honey Oatmeal Muffins

Almond Spiced Honey Oatmeal Muffins

Pour a cup of coffee, grab the morning paper and just relax a bit with these simple breakfast muffins. Mornings can be too hectic for us all and I love any excuse to just enjoy a second cup of coffee and a morning treat before tackling the day. These are the kind of muffins that are great to have on hand at the farm because they are healthy, filling and delicious. They're sweetened with my favorite local honey and spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg and have a healthy dash of almond extract to kick things up a notch. I hope you all love them as much as we do. Cheers from Tumbleweed Farm.
