This recipe can be made as either breakfast muffins or cupcakes. The next time I make them I'll be whipping up a little cream cheese frosting. They are so pretty, buttery, and yummy.
You can also make these into mini-muffins; just cut the cooking time down to about 15 to 20 minutes, but watch them closely. Mini-muffins are perfect for a healthy snack after a workout. The acai berry is loaded with nutrients you need when watching your diet, too. It's all good!
