These muffins are a recreation from a recipe passed down from my mother-in-law. I made the muffins lighter and used half whole wheat flour to add more fiber. They're a great nutritious way to start your day. —Virginia Sollitt Redmond, Washington

Tip

Big Batch Baked Goods

We enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

Love this recipe! I doubled it and used just 1/2 cup of sugar. I also added a tablespoon of ground flax seed. Muffins were moist and light and freeze beautifully.

I doubled the recipe and only added half of the sugar. I added 1/3 cup orange juice and only half the oil. I also added 1/4 c. flax seed. They turned out light and tasty. I will make these again.

I thought the muffins were very good. I doubled the recipe, and used Splenda for 1/2 of the sugar, used unsweetened apple sauce for 1/2 of the oil, added 1 Tbsp. of ground flax seed and 1 Tbsp. of wheat germ. I also used ground cloves instead of nutmeg. They were not heavy and quite healthy!

Good for a healthy-ish muffin, but I prefer the recipes with sour cream, and no wheat flour!

This is a great, healthy recipe. To make it a little healthier, I added ground flaxseed to the dry ingredients and cut the oil in 1/2 by using applesauce. These muffins were moist and not "heavy" like some recipes that use w.w. flour tend to be. It's a keeper.
