Rise and shine! Instead of buying muffins at your local coffee shop or only indulging in them as a special treat on the weekend, make these 20 muffin recipes any day of the week. We're serving up all of the classics—blueberry, chocolate chip, and banana—as well as seasonal specialties and a few healthy varieties as well, such as the Morning Glory Muffins pictured here.

Our blueberry muffin recipe is a textbook example of the perfect bite—it calls for two cups of fresh blueberries which burst with juiciness and a purple hue when baked. While most bakery-style blueberry muffins are topped with a coarse sanding sugar for crunch and sweetness, we've taken it to the next level with a brown sugar and cinnamon crumb topping. Another classic are our Lemon Poppy-Seed Muffins; Bright and fragrant, they're a cheerful way to eat breakfast.

When baking a batch of muffins for breakfast, consider adding seasonal ingredients to the batter. In summer, is there anything more delicious than Raspberry Muffins or Peach Muffins? Both show off succulent fruits—perfect after a day of picking at the local orchard. In fall, Pumpkin Doughnut Muffins hit the sweet spot between two of our favorite breakfast treats.

There's plenty of healthy muffin recipes here as well. Take these Gluten-Free Banana-Walnut Muffins for example. Mashed bananas offer plenty of potassium and brown rice flour is high in protein. For a supercharged bite, make these Quinoa Muffins.

Can't decide on just one type of muffin to bake? This recipe for Better-than-Basic Muffins is completely customizable so you can prepare a combination of chocolate chip, bran-raisin, and corn muffins with one easy batter.

Your daily breakfast just got a whole lot more delicious.
