My wife and I had a craving for some type of bakery treat so we decided to try and stay at least on the healthy side a little bit. This Spicy Cherry Rolled Oat’s Muffin Recipe makes a dozen muffins. I used dried cherries in these but I am sure you could also use raisins or any other type of dried berry you would like use. However the cherry flavor blended in real well with the other ingredients, combined with the cinnamon and wheat germ topping these muffins are an excellent treat. Enjoy
