A friend of mine gave me a great recipe for blueberry muffins. I wanted to make a batch, but I didnât have any blueberries! So I substituted the dried cranberries and played around with the other ingredients until I came up with these tender bites. âBridget M. Klusman, Otsego, Michigan Ingredients:
2-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
2 cups old-fashioned oats |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
3 teaspoons baking powder |

1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 egg |
2 cups (16 ounces) plain yogurt |
1/2 cup butter, melted |

1/4 cup old-fashioned oats |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts, toasted |
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
