The Nesting Skills Series is all about making your own home-made versions for various store-bought products. Here’s a fabulous recipe for an all purpose muffin mix. Definitely a pantry staple if you bake a lot! I love that you can customize it by adding in berries, dried fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, whatever you like! The options are endless!

I often make chocolate chip muffins for my daughter and berry for my husband and myself all at the same time. I just add the chocolate chips & berries after I’ve poured the batter mix into the muffin pan 🙂 Plus she doesn’t like a lot of chocolate chips so I can control the amount. As always, homemade is better for you because you don’t have all those weird preservatives and food coloring added and it’s usually cheaper too!
