Around 18 months (give or take a few months depending on the child) is a great time to get them involved in baking. X is really still too young to do much other than watch (we have big hopes for his interest in baking to grow in the next several months!). So he got his own set of measuring cups and other utensils to play with while he watched sister and me work. :) Though this is a blurry picture, I had to include it.

Egg and Cheese Mini Muffins - The Seasoned Mom

In my opinion, every mom with little kids should have at least one miniature muffin tin in her kitchen arsenal…they’re just so versatile!

The Great Muffin Makeover. Recipes with Whole Grains, Healthy Fats Bake Delicious and Nutritious Breakfast Treats The low-fat muffin represents everything that’s wrong with the “low fat is best” myth: Most fat in muffins comes from plant oils, which are rich sources of “good” fats—the unsaturated fats that are healthy for the heart.

The Great Muffin Makeover

When the fat’s cut back, what’s left? White flour and sugar—refined carbohydrates that the body breaks down in a flash, leading to a rapid rise in blood sugar and insulin, followed by a rapid drop, and an all-too-quick return of the hunger pangs that led you to eat that muffin in the first place. It’s a perfect recipe for weight gain, masquerading as a “better-for-you” choice. That’s not the only reason why low-fat muffins are a less-than-healthful option. Clearly, it’s time to end the low-fat myth—and it’s time for a muffin makeover. You can create more healthful versions of family-favorite muffins and baked goods in your own kitchen. 1. 2.
