Directions
These muffins are delicately spicy and wonderfully light and fluffy, just like you wouldn’t expect from a baked good made from whole grain flours. That’s just because whole grains really like to prove you wrong, in their own deliciously twisted way. Be sure to adjust the amount of chipotle pepper according to your preference.
