"Recipes for good low-fat muffins are hard to find, so I was pleased to discover that these treats are moist and scrumptious," says Amanda Denton of Barre, Vermont. "I make them often for brunches or parties...and people always comment on their fresh strawberry flavor."

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

I was so happy to see that one of the other reviewers used vanilla yogurt. That was all I had on hand. I only bake with whole wheat flour these days to try to be a bit healthier. I also took the advice of others & sprinkled cinnamon sugar on top before baking. My husband isn't much of a "muffin fan" but he loved them, as did our two girls. I will most definitely be making these again :o)

I absolutely loved these! I added a little cinnamon to mine and some cinnamon-sugar on top. I also used whole wheat flour because that's all I had, but they still turned out amazing!

I have not made this recipe, but I plan to with the fresh strawberries I picked yesterday. I was drawn to this recipe because of the nutmeg and using vanilla yogurt. Sounds yummy and moist! I'd like to make these as mini muffins instead of regular sized. Does anyone know what the cooking time would be for that? I assume the oven temperature remains the same.

This was a good recipe but I did make some minor changes. I used vanilla yogurt instead of plain yogurt. I also added 1/4t to 1/2 t cinnamon to the batter. To top it all off, I sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on top before baking. Yummy!

My three-year-old son wanted to bake something, and we had strawberries on hand, so we tried these. I doubled the recipe and used 1/2 cup fat-free strawberry yogurt and 1/2 cup lowfat sour cream. They turned out great!

I was moist, but I can't really taste the strawberry flavor. I keep this recipe and add strawberry essence....

I made these muffins last night and followed the recipe exactly. They turned out delicious and I will definitely make them again.

I put in low fat strawberry yogurt instead of plain. Makes it even tastier!

These are really good. I make mini's and put them in my kids' lunch.

I liked the strawberries & nutmeg! I used plain yogurt which made the muffins just right. The batter was thick, but baked up nicely. I had 12 regular & 4 mini muffins.
