Peanut Butter Trail Mix Muffins

Using store-bought fruit and nut granola is a cost-effective way to purchase the ingredients. The muffins can be frozen up to 3 weeks in a zip-top bag. Place the bag on the countertop partially open overnight to thaw and reheat in the microwave 15 seconds, if desired.
