Why I Love This Recipe
These muffins are the best I've ever had.
I veganized the recipe with my own no-longer-secret trick to using silken tofu. See the vegan version under "Vegetarian, Vegan" (try it, you'll love it!).
This is an astonishingly healthy recipe, with blueberries, orange zest, oatmeal and nuts, all super-foods.
