A Million Muffins

This is the only muffin recipe you'll ever need. I've written the recipe in a way that will allow you choose a million different flavours to make, all using the same healthy recipe! So what are you waiting for? GET BAKING!!!


2c           flour

1/2c        healthy dry stuff

1/2c        yummy bits

1/2c        sugar (can replace with 2tsp stevia)

2tsp        baking powder

1tsp        baking soda

1/2tsp     salt

2            eggs

1/4c       oil or melted butter

1c          wet gooey stuff

???        enough milk or juice to make everything wet

              (I start with 1/2c and add more if I need it)

Definitions:

Healthy dry stuff- oats, whole-wheat flour, bran and ground flax ect.

Yummy bits- chocolate chips, dried cranberries, nuts, raisins, dates, diced up fruit like oranges or apples. Use your imagination…that’s the fun part of cooking!

Wet gooey stuff- mashed banana, apple sauce, shredded carrot, shredded zucchini or pumpkin puree. Use anything you want that is wet, gooey and YUMMY.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Set out your muffin tin and place one liner in each hole.

In a large bowl add your dry ingredients and stir with a whisk.

In another large bowl add all your wet ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula.

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir with a rubber spatula. Don’t stir too much, just until everything looks wet and gooey. If it looks too dry add more milk or juice. It should look wet and gooey NOT RUNNY so only add a little liquid at a time.

Scoop out the mix with an ice cream scoop and place one scoop in each lined muffin tin. Put the filled tin in the oven. Set your timer for 25 minutes.

When the timer goes off peek inside the oven to see if the muffins look done. You can check them with a tooth- pick or carefully touch the top like I showed you. You may want mom or dad to help you with this part.

Remove from the oven and let cool for a bit. Then gobble them up!
