Healthy Recipe

3-grain raspberry muffins

Who wouldn't love waking up to a warm, hearty muffin in the morning? Cornmeal gives these muffins a crunchy texture that pairs well with any sweet berry, from raspberries to blueberries. This recipe makes a dozen muffins, but you can easily freeze any extras in a zip-close plastic bag to have for breakfast or a snack another day. Add a dollop of plain Greek yogurt for a contrasting, creamy texture and an extra punch of protein.
