Muffins?

[Crazy8]

I'd just tell her " I have modified the recipe to suit my preferences and raised the nutritional value of the muffins but if you don't feel comfortable with my choices you may send something to serve on the days I make muffins for our group. "

Personally I say kudos to you!! Princess food police has a provider who cares enough to modify HOME MADE MUFFINS to be MORE NUTRITIOUS and she DARES to get on to you for your choices? Oh no!!! She's lucky to have found someone who takes that time! SHE is the one with the issue, SHE needs to come up with a solution.

absolutely agree on all counts!! that is the perfect response to her email and my kudos to you as well.

well, my dck's didn't want to eat them because they had oatmeal in them, but my 4 kids ate the whole entire container over 40 muffins, next week I will make banana or carrot, I'm just shocked at how kids just don't like muffins.

2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1/4 cup oil

then add one of the following
2 teaspoons grated lemon or orange peel and 2 table spoon of juice from same fruit
3 bananas
1 table spoon cinnamon
3/4 cup fruit (I often mix with sugar the day before and then blend before mixing that way you have the flavor and not the chunks)

or use brown sugar and 3/4 cups oatmeal and only 1 1/4 cup flour

you can add
applesauce instead of oil too or add both
choco chips
apple chuncks
carrots
oatmeal
peaches

I use basically the same recipe aside from preferring 1tsp baking soda over the 2tsp baking powder, and apple sauce for oil.

Sometimes I use oats, like the PP said, or sometimes I use bran.

I'm just shocked at how kids just don't like muffins.

It's because they are comparing it to candy taste wise.

If the mom is concerned about sugar ask her to supply you with aguave (sugar alternative). It's not that expensive...
