Strawberry And Yogurt Bran Muffins
These muffins are an absolute treat. The strawberries continue to be productive and we’re trying to enjoy them while they last. Taylor and I have been on a smoothie kick in the mornings recently but we needed to switch things up and these muffins are a welcome change. They are sweetened with honey, pure cane sugar and the juiciest strawberries around! The addition of yogurt makes them extremely moist and bumps up the protein which is nice first thing in the morning. I love a good-old-fashioned bran muffin and think this version is the best I’ve ever had. These are the perfect farmers fuel and we hope you enjoy them as much as we do.
Pour a cup of coffee and dig in!

How delish! These muffins look like they’d completely make my morning!
