I love muffins, Mondays... not so much. Combine the two and it makes Muffin Monday, a much better way to start the week! These muffins are simple to make and the smell while baking was AMAZING! I couldn't wait to bite into one of these. The flavour was just as good as the smell. Try making these muffins to brighten up your morning and awaken your senses.
