Muffins are the author's favorite breakfast food because they contain carbohydrates for energy as well as nutrients like calcium, iron, and potassium. A blueberry muffin provides 23g of carbohydrates and potassium supports heart, kidney, muscle and nerve health as an electrolyte. As an alternative to muffins, whole grain cereals with fruit also supply carbohydrates and potassium for a healthy breakfast.
