Expert Tips

Eating at least 3 servings of whole grain daily may help reduce blood cholesterol. Look for the word "whole" to be sure you get the whole grain.

Low-fat muffins sometimes stick to paper liners. A quick spray with cooking spray helps solve that problem, and the muffins release easily.

These were very tasty muffins. I substituted 1/2 of a cup of oat flour and 1/4 cup flax meal for 3/4 cup of regular flour and only used 1/4 cup of all purpose flour. Additionally, I used special k vanilla/almond cereal and bran cereal for the cereal. Results were tasty.
