1/2 cup old-fashioned oatmeal
1/2 cup flax seed meal
1/4 cup sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup honey

1 cup plain yogurt
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tsp vanilla
2 tsp. finely grated orange rind
1 cup chopped dried apricots, about 5 ounces (or other desired dried fruit)
1/3 cup granola

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375. Coat 12 muffin cups with cooking spray
2. Combine flour and next 5 ingredients (flour through salt) in a mixing bowl.
3. Combine honey and next five ingredients (honey through orange rind) in a separate bowl. Whisk well.
4. Make a well in the center of dry ingredients. Pour wet ingredients into the well and stir until just combined. Gently fold in apricots.
