Who does not love muffins? But muffins also tend to stay on your hips. This is why I try to modify normal recipes into lighter ones. You can also add chocolate chips, walnuts, chopped or small blueberries, or chopped pecans when you combine the wet and dry ingredients... This is a great base recipe.
