These gluten free muesli muffins are perfect for a sunday brunch or as after school snacks. They’re hearty, earthy and foolproof to make. You can’t fail when making these because you just mix the ingredients. No beating eggs for 7 minutes or beating butter and sugar until light and airy. Most of my baking failures happens when I haven’t done these things properly.

I should be focusing on math and chemistry and biology but as always my thoughts evolve around everything that you can bake. So chemistry is not a priority unless I’m allowed to bake that Chemistry book in the oven on grill function until it burns. Actually I’m most frustrated on my new math book so I’d burn that one first.

Anyhow, If you’re frustrated and tired like me then eat these muffins and you will be happy. I promise. Pinky Promise.
