12 Tips for Making Heathy Muffins from Scratch

Decrease the fat, but not completely. Usually just 3 to 4 tablespoons of oil or butter per batch of 8 to to 12 muffins is enough to keep your muffins moist and tender.

Use whole wheat pastry flour. It's much lighter than regular whole-wheat flour while retaining the healthy antioxidant-rich bran and germ. Try substituting half the flour in your favorite muffin recipe for whole wheat pastry flour or another favorite whole grain flour such as oat, barley or spelt flour.

Add some healthy omega-3 rich nuts. Walnuts and almonds are good choices.

Substitute 1/4 to 1/2 cup fruit or vegetable puree for the same amount of oil in your favorite muffin recipe. This will increase the nutrition, moisture, tenderness and natural sweetness of your muffins. Applesauce and pumpkin puree are personal favorites.

Mix together the dry ingredients well with a fork or wire whisk. You want to fluff the flour up which will help create lighter more tender muffins.
