Hellobee Boards

Take a peek on Smitten Kitchen...I use the whole wheat muffin recipe from that site and i always reduce the sugar by at least half.

I've been looking at these ones for myself! Haha

I really dislike a lot of "toddler" muffin recipes because they claim it's healthy because of the whole wheat and call for so much sugar!

I make these alll the time now. Both DH and E love them and I use only one packet of truvia to sweeten them, but could probably leave it out altogether. They're more oatmeal to go, than a true muffin, but they are healthy and delicious!

This has zero sugar

BABY Muffins
• 2 mashed ripe bananas
• 1 egg
• 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/2 cup applesauce
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1 cup of berries

1) Preheat oven to 350
2) Combine dry ingredients
3) Combine wet ingredients in a separate bowl
4) Add wet ingredients to dry mixture and mix until combined. Then fold in berries.
6) Bake for 15 mins

You can easily halve the sugar in most recipes without if effecting consistency. I have replaced the fruit in a standard banana muffin recipe with veggies like carrot, zucchini, or pumpkin and all but eliminated the sugar (I used maybe 1/4 cup max where it called for 1).
