| | As Fall approaches, I'm getting back in to baking mode, and that means plenty of home-made muffins. I used to enjoy coffee-store muffins until I realized they packed in up to 400 calories, with a scary amount of fat and sugar. The muffins featured in this week's newsletter are still a sweet treat, but they're much kinder to your waistline. | | Morning Glory Muffins These moist and delicious muffins feature shredded carrots, crushed pineapple and raisins. You can add a nutritional boost by replacing up to half the flour with whole-wheat pastry flour, which keeps the muffins tender while adding extra fiber. | Zucchini Muffins Still trying to find ways to use up zucchini? Try these zucchini muffins, which also feature heart-healthy walnuts. Raisins add a nice fruity touch. | Apple Oatmeal Muffins These make perfect breakfast muffins. Shredded apples keep these muffins nice and moist. Consider replacing up to half the flour with whole-wheat pastry flour for an extra nutritional boost. | Pear Muffins Cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg add a nice flavor to these fall-friendly muffins. These muffins are perfect with a cup of fresh-brewed coffee. Enjoy them while they're still warm! | | | | Low Fat Cooking Ads | | | | Featured Articles | | | | More from About.com | | | | | | Plan a Caribbean Vacation Whether you're planning a romantic escape, a girlfriend getaway, or an active family vacation we've got the resources you need.
