15 Healthy Muffin Recipes

Well, it looks like we shall all be making the most of cooking and baking at home during the next few weeks. Baking with children is a great activity and will certainly help pass time each day. These 15 Healthy Muffin Recipes are a great resource to keep coming back too.

I’d love to know which healthy muffin recipe you find especially tasty and if you adapt them in anyway.

The Educational Benefits of Baking

Baking muffins teaches children a number of useful skills that will still be useful in the future. Children learn best when they are doing things and kinesthetic learning means that children are doing things practically. Baking includes measuring out ingredients and following instructions and both of these are good for children. In Maths children need to know how many grams are in a kilogram, how many fluid ounces in a litre and this is a practical way to teach this whilst having some fun.

Now is a great time to learn these skills. Lockdown provides us with the opportunity to go back to basics and rely less on fast food and enjoy baking once more. We have time and one thing I hope is that this brings families closer together.

This round up of 15 healthy muffins should have something for all tastes and ages.
