I'm looking for a recipe for a muffin mix that I can make up in bulk, so I just have to add the liquids later... basically a DIY substitute for store-bought mix. Hoping for something pretty healthy and basic so I can doctor them up with whatever add-ins we want that week. I've seen a few online, but the reviews were often mixed... anyone have a recipe that they like?

Yes! Let me find it! I also have one where you make a big batch, freeze the dough in muffin cups, and bake from frozen later!

Following!

@Mrs. Oatmeal: YAY, I was hoping you'd see this
Should have just texted you! Haha
-
@Synchronicity: too true! Also- I'll text you about getting together this week or next- haven't seen you in ages!
Here's the recipe I used for gifts a few years ago: http://www.littlehouseliving.com/homemade-muffin-mix.html

@Mrs. Oatmeal: Thank you thank you! And sounds good, it has been toooo long again!

I do this all the time with pancakes. I just mix up all the dry ingredients from my current favorite pancake recipe in a gallon Ziplock, weigh the bag on my kitchen scale, and divide by the number of batches it's supposed to make to find the weight I should use each time (so if I made enough for 6 batches and it weighed 48 oz, I'd know to use 8 oz of mix). I use a sharpie to write the wet ingredient measurements on the bag so I don't even have to refer to the recipe.
Anyway, that's a long-winded way of saying you can do this with any muffin recipe you like, you don't have to stick to mix formulas you find online!

@Synchronicity: @Mrs. Oatmeal: ooh thanks for posting. I've been wanting to do this but didn't have the mental capacity to even google it. But I've been wanting some reasonably healthy and very easy muffins I could make with my toddler (and eat lots of while she naps...)
@PurplePeony: I realize in theory that I could do this with any recipe, but I have a 3 week old who thinks sleep is for the weak... All that math is sadly way beyond me at the moment.
-
@PurplePeony: I don't have a scale, and I was hoping that someone would have a solid recipe so that the work was done for me
Feeling lazy, I guess!

@Synchronicity: ah, ok. I'd give you one of my hacked recipes if I had a good one for muffins, but I can never seem to find even a regular muffin recipe I like, let alone a mix.
Should have just texted you! Haha
