Muffin Monday: Blueberry Granola Whole Wheat Muffins




This week has been super fun!
I had a three day weekend! As a teacher I LOVE three days weekends
Only thing better then a three day weekend is summer vacation!
And BAKING!
Every day on my three day weekend I baked something new and I loved it.
Makes me wish I was baking all the time.
ONEDAY!
Calling all bakers... Who wants to open a bakery with me?!

I saw that a lot of people do Muffin Mondays so I decided to jump on that wagon and join them.
I first saw it on my friends Mike's blog who saw it from Baker Street.
Check their blogs out!
They are amazing bakers!

On to what I baked!
I've been using this book called Small-Batch Baking.
I love it because it allows me to bake and not have too many left overs!
In the book I found a delicious recipe.
