Four Grain, Four Berry Muffins
"Berries have more anti-oxidants than any other food (see http://optimalhealth.cia.com.au/OracLevels.htm). I also know that some flours have certain nutrients that others might not, so I adapted a muffin recipe and created my own mix."

I like the flavor and texture.I was unable to detect any one fruit taste.A couple stuck even with foil liners!I think I would cut honey in half;they were a little sweet for me.I like the flour combination.(very unique.)I would make again but leave fruit in larger pieces.I used buttermilk instead of souring milk along with whole wheat pastry flour.I will try another tomorrow to see if i like as much.
