Another week, another muffin recipe…
Yes you guessed it, I made muffins again for Dan and I for breakfast for the week. I decided I needed to shake things up a tad and buy some different kind of fruit, besides blueberries, strawberries and bananas. I ended up with peaches. Honestly, Im not a huge fan of peaches. As a kid my mom and I swear every daycare provider had those peaches in those small plastic cans in that disgusting syrup. Just thinking about the sliminess of them makes my stomach turn…and not in a good way…anyways…I decided to try again on my relationship with peaches…this time with fresh ones. The muffins turned out decent…I’d almost make them again…so maybe my relationship with peaches has some hope…but only in small doses.
