HEALTHY GOOD MORNING MUFFINS
I got this out of a newspaper health supplement, it's a recipe by a nutrition adviser. I've tried them myself and they make a great alternative breakfast, especially warmed up with a little butter. If you like a bit of sweetness use sweetened coconut or you can soak your raisins in apple juice overnight.

Tips:
- Use whole wheat flour. Whole wheat flour is a good source of fiber, which can help you feel full and satisfied after eating. It is also a good source of vitamins and minerals.
- Add fruits and vegetables. Fruits and vegetables are a great way to add flavor, nutrients, and moisture to your muffins. They also help to make your muffins more colorful and appealing.
- Use natural sweeteners. Instead of refined sugar, try using natural sweeteners like honey, maple syrup, or coconut sugar. These sweeteners are healthier and will give your muffins a more complex flavor.
- Use healthy fats. Healthy fats, such as avocado oil, olive oil, and nuts, can help to keep your muffins moist and flavorful. They can also help to improve your cholesterol levels.
- Limit added sugar. Added sugar is a major source of empty calories and can contribute to weight gain and other health problems. When you are making muffins, try to limit the amount of added sugar you use.
- Make them your own. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to create your own unique muffins. You can add spices, herbs, nuts, seeds, or dried fruits to your muffins to create different flavor combinations.
