My baked goods turned out too dry, too harsh, too bitter or just plain yuck. A <a target = \"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/custerfamilyfarm.com\/blog1\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">good friend<\/a> of mine came to the rescue and gave me several of her tried and true recipes and saved me many hours in the kitchen.<\/p>\n<p>One of the recipes that has stayed on the top of my recipe folder is a muffin recipe that I have tweaked to make it my own. My family love these muffins so much that I always make a double batch &amp; freeze them for the week&#8217;s breakfast and if asked is one of their favorite breakfast foods.<\/p>\n<p>Millet is a cereal grain rich in the B-vitamins (especially the cancer fighting vitamin B-17), calcium, folic acid, iron, potassium, magnesium &amp; zinc. It can usually be found in the organic food department in your local grocery store.<\/p>\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-30144\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\"
