Morning Glory Muffins with Sprouted Spelt Flour

This post has been sponsored by Anita's Organic Mill. I received some product in exchange for this post, however, all opinions are my own and I would never promote a product that I wouldn't use myself! Actually, I have been using Anita's Flours for years :)Today's post is inspired by my four-year-old, Scarlett. For whatever reason, when she woke up this morning, she was determined to make muffins! So, at 8 am, we pre-heated the oven, and the three of us got busy making Morning Glory Muffins with Sprouted Spelt Flour! I really enjoy cooking with my kiddos. By doing so, I'm teaching them a valuable skill while making memories. I may not get on the floor and play with them like Daddy does, but I love getting them involved in the kitchen - that's our '"thing". Yes, Ruby just sits there like a little lump and chews on toys and spoons, but she's very curious about everything that's going on! At four, Scarlett now stirs, cracks eggs, measures out ingredients and licks batter off of mixing spoons. The whole experience is just so stinkin' cute, really.
