Healthy, delicious muffin recipes?

Does anyone know any good muffin recipes that are healthy as well, preferrably without butter? We have apples and some strawberries to bake with, but no other fruit, and we have brown and white sugar, flour, and vrious spices. These would be eaten for snacks at school, work, etc.

Easy!


Here's a basic ';muffin'; recipe


1/3 cup shortening


1/2 cup sugar


1 egg


1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour


1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder


1/2 teaspoon salt


1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg


1/2 cup milk


1/2 cup sugar


1 teaspoon ground cinnamon


Bake at 350, for 20 mins...test center, give it up to 5 mins more if needed.





Now, when adding any fruit, you have to chop it...finely...usually about 1/2-3/4 cup to a recipe. You could also cut a well into the top of the muffin, fill with fruit and replace the cap.


You can make a simple crumble topping, too, with brown sugar, flour and only 1 tbsp butter/margarine, or even use a little yogurt. Mix 1 part flour to 2 parts brown sugar. If you sprinkle it on top before baking, leave out any ';wet'; ingredient. If you do it after, then dip the muffin top into butter/yogurt then roll in brown sugar, no flour added.
These can be made about any flavor you can dream up! We like ';Banana Split';:





1 c oats


1 c milk


Combine in microwave safe bowl and warm, about 1 minute.





Add to milk/oats:


2 mashed bananas (or about 1 c pack pumpkin, squash, applesauce, etc.)


1/4 c oil (I use olive oil)


2 eggs


1 t vanilla extract





In a separate bowl whisk together:


2 c flour (half all-purpose and half whole wheat)


1/2 c sugar


1 T baking powder


1/4 t salt


1 t cinnamon


1/4 t ground nutmeg (especially good with the banana)





Stir well, until all is combined, then add:


1/2 c chocolate chips


1/2 c chopped walnuts


The extra stirring gives it a chewier, bread sort of texture. Stir less if you like cakier muffins.





Fill muffins 3/4 full and bake about 20 minutes at 350F. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks. Once cooled, store in airtight container. Makes 23... yes, 23... I'm always 1 shy of 2 dozen. I'm not about to screw with the recipe to make it 24.
