I have been needing breakfasts that I eat on the go. Not because I am in a hurry, but because I have started walking to work. I figure its a good way to start the day, and I need to get myself into healthier habits. These are my first attempt at healthy start cranberry muffins! My first though, there needs to be more cranberry. I am doubling the amount next time I make them.
