Homemade Muffin Mix

Healthy Homemade Muffin Mix Recipe

My kids love going with me to Walmart, because they know I typically let them pick out a Martha White Muffin Mix, you know the “just add water” mixes… Well, it’s easy for them to make all on their own, and they REALLY enjoy it! Mom guilt was setting in though. Here I eat like a rabbit, and I’m allowing my kids to eat this junk called PRESERVATIVES!!! I finally got pretty disgusted with myself, and said I can make them HEALTHY muffin mixes! That’s when this recipe was born.

I didn’t come up with a “just add water” recipe, but it’s pretty darn easy, and they can definitely handle it! When we baked up our first batch, we all SQUEALED! They tasted fabulous and the best part, they are super easy to make! Seriously, you could make bags and bags of this mix without a sweat!

This mix can be switched up into a million different ways, to give you that same great flavor that Martha White mixes have. You could even use banana powder (yes, it’s really a thing and you can buy it at Walmart!) to make the banana nut flavor… or just throw in a real banana. Of course my flavor combinations have ZERO artificial flavors and are the real deal good for you! Enjoy the recipes my friends, and get those kids in the kitchen!
