Did you know that cinnamon is a calming spice? If your kids could use a little calming (and a little less hyperactivity-inducing sugar) after the holidays, give my Sugar-Free Apple Spice Muffins a try! These are healthy enough to be a meal at breakfast, hearty enough to curb the appetite at snack time, and sweet [...]

Like I said in my last posting, I’ve got summer squash growing like crazy in my garden, so I had to find another way to sneak the stuff into my kids’ diet, since they refuse to eat actual, visible pieces of squash or zucchini! So yesterday, I invented these lovely, whole wheat summer squash/zucchini pancakes:
Using [...]

With fresh vegetables and whole grain flour, these muffins are healthy enough to serve for breakfast, but yummy enough to taste like dessert!
I invented these muffins last night, because my garden has produced quite the bumper crop of summer squash this year:
The resulting recipe turned out some very healthy, yet delicious muffins! In my pictures, [...]

With brown sugar in the batter and pineapple chunks in the center, these muffins taste so incredibly dessert-like that my kids devoured them without stopping to notice the coarse whole grain flour and precious little oil I used to make them! They gobbled them up so quickly that next time, I will have to double [...]

I like the convenience of breakfast bars, but hate the cost (four buck for six bars? COME ON!), added preservatives, high fructose corn syrups, and very environmentally not-friendly wasteful packaging!
And so I invented these–my yummy breakfast muffins, loaded with the tasty flavors of whole grain flour, oats, and fruit jam!
You can use any jam that you [...]

The pumpkin in this batter helps hide the gritty texture of your wheat flour, so you can grind your wheat as coarse as you want (within reason) and your kids will still devour these scrumptious yet healthy muffins. Mine sure do!
Here’s the recipe:
Sugar-Free Pumpkin Muffins
1 and 3/4 cups of whole wheat flour
1 tsp [...]

I invented these super-yummy breakfast muffins for my son, who refuses to eat meat. The sausage is hidden inside a scrumptious maple/whole-grain batter and tastes soooo good that even my little meat-hater devoured them!
You can make these two ways. The first is a regular muffin with the sausage patty inside :The second is a mini-muffin with cooked [...]

Have you ever tasted the Aussie Bites at Sam’s club? I LOVE them, but they are way too fattening for me to want to bake them, so I took their recipe, changed a few things, and voila: a new, healthy, breakfast-friendly muffin that my children LOVE:
Breakfast Bites
2 cups oats
2 cups whole wheat flour
2/3 cup brown [...]

The yogurt in these muffins helped hide the grainy texture of the whole wheat. My kids devoured them!
Because I prefer mini-muffins (less mess ’cause kids can pop them into their mouths), I did not use real blueberries. The blueberries I buy are so large that I would only get about one blueberry per muffin. Also, [...]
