Fabu Muffin Book!

I think this lady needs to reprint! Great book and has the nutrition info with the recipes, not everyone who puts a recipe book together does that, don't know WHY they don't do that...they would sell more books!

Awesome cookbook!

This book has the BEST recipes for not only muffins, but scones, pancakes and waffles. The Buttermilk Pancakes are the best - my kids love them! "Miracle Muffins" is also great for teaching your kids how to bake and how to use healthy ingredients. All 4 of my kids (including my 14 year old son) love this cookbook. We've used it so much it's stained with oil, flour and the binding is ready to crack! You will love this book - I highly recommend it!

I collect muffin cookbooks, this is my favorite

I have to admit, I'm addicted to muffins! I wanted to lose weight without giving them up and this book allowed me to do just that. It contains the absolute best recipes I've ever tried. When I want a sure winner, which is often, this book is my first choice. Don't be afraid to experiment, these recipes allow you to make substitutions. If I don't have low-fat ricotta cheese, I use low or non-fat yogurt. I also substitue the oil with applesauce. If you prefer whole grains like I do, use whole wheat pastry flour. Patty Keely's formula is outstanding. You can't go wrong!

Miracle Muffins---reprint the book, please

This is a wonderful little book chock full of healthy and tasty low fat and low sugar recipes. My family especially loves the easy-to-make scones, in all the different varities. I wanted to buy another copy for my grown daughter, but it is no longer available. I'm hoping that the publisher will reprint more copies.

Delicious, Nutrious Muffins

This is a great little muffin book packed with over 100 delicious foolproof recipes. About half are for muffins. Although some exotic ingredients are used, most of the recipes are quick & easy to make. Recipes have between 3-6 grams of fat, though most contain 4-5 grams. This may seem a little high, but the muffins are a bit larger than most. Baking papers are filled to top, producing nice round muffins. Recipes include a wide variety of muffins including those with fruit, savory ones, & coffee cake style. Scones, waffles, hotcakes, breakfast breads, syrups & spreads are also included. The book also discusses equipment & ingredients. Many useful hints & tips are included as well. One of my favorite recipes is the Parmesan & fresh herb muffins. I also love the banana drop scones & strawberry topping.
