A complete breakfast packed into a familiar shape

They’re magic because they’re healthy and your kids will scarf them down and get their morning protein. Not only will they be able to jump off a giant muffin, they will be able to focus more easily on their schoolwork without being on a fidgety and hyper sugar high or a lethargic sugar low. You will probably notice better behavior and a better mood. And if you don’t have time to eat after feeding the kids, you can toss a muffin in your purse on the way to work…

These Super Muffins are the creation of Austin’s most popular naturopathic doctor, Amy Tyler, who works at Peoples Pharmacy in South Austin. They are kid tested and approved even for discerning palates. Her kids love them!
