So I have a houseguest for a few days, and I decide to make smoothies and muffins for breakfast. Whaaat? No oatmeal-in-rice-cooker? I know. I know. A break in the routine, if you can imagine.So I'm substituting away, feeling pretty clever making carrot-walnut muffins (local carrots!) out of Molly Katzen's low-fat banana muffin recipe. Extra leavening, some salt... but darnit, I added oats rather than making oat flour. My houseguest was sleeping, so probably a good thing I didn't grind oats, but I hated to screw up something I thought was going so well. Muffins were good, but a bit dry. More raisins next time!

Ah, making substitutions in muffin recipes is almost always my downfall... it seems like it should be so easy but I've made a lot of weird muffins.
Dry muffins are no problem: split them and spread them with butter!
