11 Healthy Muffin Recipes

These power-packed muffins by Chef Gordon Ramsay have fresh berries, bananas and whole-wheat flour. Practically made to accompany a glass of fresh citrus juice. Recipe: Whole Wheat Blueberry MuffinsFeaturing the ultimately satisfying flavor combo of apple and cinnamon, plus the added bonus of whole-wheat flour, fruit, nuts and carrots, these muffins are dangerously close to perfect. Recipe: Apple Cinnamon Whole Wheat MuffinsThese muffins are heavy on the fruit, which means big bites of warm, juicy blackberries. Blue corn has a sweet, nutty flavor, but yellow cornmeal is a fine substitute. The batter is best refrigerated overnight, so it has a chance to leaven. Recipe: Blackberry Blue Corn MuffinsOnce made, the batter for these muffins can be refrigerated for up to two weeks. A great base for all sorts of nutritious fruit and nut add-ins, we recommend doubling (or tripling) the batter recipe for multiple batches. Recipe: Heart-Smart Refrigerator Bran MuffinsWhole-wheat flour, rolled oats and peanut butter gives these muffins staying power. Fresh bananas and strawberry jam make them fun. Recipe: Peanut Butter and Jelly Power MuffinsPerfect for breakfast with a strong cup of coffee, this sweet and spicy recipe calls for a mixture of soy and all-purpose flour. The different flours will create a unique texture and the filling wheat bran cereal and energy-packed figs will only add to it. Recipe: Spiced Bran MuffinsThe name says it all when it comes to these zucchini based muffins that also star healthful goji berries and agave nectar. Check your supermarket for the Goji berries and agave nectar, they are readily available these days. But if you can’t find them, you can easily substitute with tart dried cherries and light honey. Recipe: Finnley's Super MuffinsImagine your favorite summertime pie, but in muffin form. These are sweet and delicious, and thanks to the addition of applesauce, they’re extra moist.
