Why I Love Muffins
- They are super versatile
- They can be made extremely healthy
- Easy to bring on picnics, to lunch, during work or school, when you’re in a hurry, while you’re hiking…
- They taste like dessert!
- I can smear some coconut butter “frosting” on a carrot cake muffin and eat it like dessert!
- I can bring them on the plane for an easy breakfast
- I can eat them for lunch with a smoothie
- I can eat them before I work out for some energy
- Adding protein powder is easy, and tastes good
- Whole wheat, bran, chia, flax, are all high fiber add-ins that make them powerful muffins!
- I can eat them for any taste I’m looking for (blueberry, carrot cake, nutty, poppyseed, chocolate…)
- They are fun to make with family
- They make great gifts! Just put them in a cute basket and tie them with a bow π
- They can provide servings of veggies and fruit!
- They smell good in the oven
- I like to share them with friends

A GIRL AFTER MY OWN MUFFIN LOVING HEART <3
sucks that teenagehealthfreak doesnt get filled up from them. i definitely feel full, but theyve gotta be big- bigger muffins are better muffins π
i love how you can mix up any version in one bowl and pour into a pan and bake.. theyre better than cupcakes too cuz u can eat muffins with ur hands witout a mess. plus theyre portable and easy to carry… and i love big caps ontop which make it so fun to pull apart and eat <3
muffins also make great get-well-soon gifts or can be used as ice-breakers with neighbors and businesses.
my mom used to make bran muffins at home and i would always heat one up then spread some butter on it. the melting butter combo with the bran was FABULOUS!.. and they totally can become dessert toppings too. i would take the muffins and mush them with vanilla ice cream <3
as you know, i eat a lot of muffins and theyre always on my blog hehe. muffins SCREAM love.. theyre little nutrition-packed bodies are the epitome of comfort food- perfect for breakfast, snacks, or desserts !!!
thanks for highlighting the best food: MUFFINS π
XOXO
Hahaha! Yes muffins are fantastic π Maybe the reason I have been craving them lately was from reading your blog…
Muffins help in fighting hunger pangs when I have to stay up for emergencies. They keep my tummy from growling in the middle of surgical interventions π
cool those sound good
Muffins are so yum! I loooove them.
We usually make muffins almost every week! Not so much lately since we’ve been traveling so much but nothing’s better than a good muffin in the morning…or afternoon…or dinner for that matter π
