Homemade Master Muffin Mix Recipe. No need to buy pre-made muffin mixes from the store- we've got all you need to make your own mix. Your kids will have trouble deciding which muffins to try first!

Muffins can be worse than donuts.  I saw my kids eat an entire muffin, from a store that shall not be named, at a church campout last weekend.   The muffin in question; 690 calories, 48 grams of sugar, and 32 grams of fat!  And they had no trouble eating the entire thing!  I have always loved muffins though, so I knew there could be a better way.  Sometimes the best thing for a busy morning is pre-made muffins.  But this is how we make them better.Homemade Master Muffin Mix Recipe. No need to buy pre-made muffin mixes from the store- we've got all you need to make your own mix. Your kids will have trouble deciding which muffins to try first!  First, we start with our very own homemade muffin mix!  This is easy. We used:

  • 8 cups of whole wheat flour
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 cup coconut oil (in the solid state)

Mix all the dry ingredients together, and then cut in the solid coconut oil as if it were shortening.  Use a pastry blender to incorporate it well into the dry ingredients.

Store your mix at room temperature or below!  Any warmer, and your coconut oil will become soft and liquid.  If you live in a very warm climate, store your mix in the fridge.

I printed some Avery labels (because I’m no designer myself, and the labels are super easy!) for my jar.

After you have your mix, make your muffins!  We simply use 2 1/3 cup of muffin mix with 1 egg and 1 cup of milk.  Then, to flavor them, you can use two methods.
