Late Muffins

Yesterday evening I came home and realized that there is nothing on breakfast. So, I thought that I will prepare something easy, what wouldn´t take much time. Muffins. I tried to find the easiest recept on the internet but it was impossible. So many recipes, some of them with ingredients, which I don´t like or have. So I got great idea - I prepared my own recipe and then also muffins. It ended like this:
