Butter Crunch Muffins

I’ve been baking these muffins almost every weekend for months.  They’re light, tasty and healthy.  Great on-the-go breakfasts for the work week!  I love the potential versatility of the recipe: switch up the type of flour/meal that you use and you’ll still get a great muffin.  I’ve even gone the gluten-free route and ended up with an awesome muffin.
