100% Whole Wheat Muffins
"Very nice muffins with a high health factor. I haven't had these stick around long enough to worry about freezing any. For their portraits I dressed them up with walnut halves on top. Pretty much any firm fruit (raisins, cranberries, cherries, dried apricots, etc) or chopped nuts can be added as desired."

These came out great! I used Hodgson Mill 100% stone ground whole wheat flour, Eggland's Best large eggs, Lactaid fat free milk, Sugar in the Raw turbinado sugar (instead of brown sugar, as I didn't have any), Smart Balance Omega oil (instead of butter) and added 1 tsp. vanilla extract. Only had to bake for 15 minutes and made exactly a dozen in my 36 year old aluminum muffin pan sprayed with canola oil. Served wtih apricot All Fruit and I was a happy, healthy breakfast eater! -
These are perfect breakfast muffins as they are not sweet and are perfect for a bit of jam!! I added some fresh blueberries in mine and they came out real tasty!! Used regular brown sugar and low-fat milk. Thanks Annacia! :) -
Very light texture for being whole wheat (I used WW Pastry flour) and I can think of several add-ins that would go well with these (dried cherries or diced dried apricots, for starters). I topped mine with some sliced almonds before baking. If you are looking for a sticky, sweet muffin, this isn't it, but just the right amount of sweetness for me. -
This is a really GREAT Receipe!. I tweaked it a little bit. I added 3 sliced bananas, 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon powder, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 2 tablespoons of honey, 1 cup of almond milk instead of regular milk and garnished the top of the muffins with dried cranberries. Ultimate energy breakfast muffin! -
Very good! I followed the recipe with the addition of raisins. These are not sweet so don't be expecting that, but you could add all kinds of things to this recipe, or spread jam on them. They're good with coffee. Thanks!

very decent recipe that stands up well to variations!! i added 1/4 cup wheat germ, used 5 T brown sugar :), and used oil instead of butter. they came out a lighter brown color, not dry at all. i actually wouldn't add a thing (fruit, nuts, etc..). i had these with pumpkin butter, which is very sweet, and it was a perfect match... i'm sure any jam would go great as well. by the way, this was extremely simple to put together -- very few and common ingredients. they're also healthy enough that i don't feel guilty eating them in the mornings or as a snack :) thanks so much for the recipe!! -
