Kristi shared these muffins with us, and the kids love them!  I used oatmeal instead of pecans because Breck can't have nuts yet.  And I reduce the amount of brown sugar to just a tiny sprinkle of top of each one because Brin declared them too sweet the first time that I made them.  These are really yummy, thanks for sharing Kristi!

We tried this for dinner the other night, and it was better than going out for takeout. We use Beef Broth as a substitute for sherry and put this over jasmine rice (which I fell in love with when we have those Hawaiian haystacks at one of your wedding showers, Heather!)

We have made this A LOT lately.  We use steel cut oats instead of oat groats and any vanilla yogurt that is on sale.  (greek or not!)  I add a little bit extra oj so that it isn't such a workout for our blender.  It's yummy and filling! I double it if it's for our whole family.

I can't remember if I posted this or not yet, but these are really soft and yummy.
