A delicious and healthy muffin conconction I came up with. The spelt flour can be ommited for more whole-wheat flour if you have none on hand. I have already entered this recipe under the food database as 'Patty's 5-Berry Oatmeal & Flax Muffins'. I also have this recipe up on allrecipes.com for those of you who want a visual of what they look like; http://allrecipes.com/PersonalRecipe/62371627/Mixed-Berry-Oatmeal-Flax-Muffins/Detail.aspx
