Muffins for Mom

These delicious muffins would please any mom for breakfast in bed on Mothers' Day. The everyday muffin recipe can be made using all whole wheat flour for a healthier version and you can use any combination of fruit and nuts. The chocolate muffins are great with either chocolate chips or diced fresh strawberries or raspberries.
