Introduction
Instead of white sugar this recipe uses molasses, which adds iron. Contains a lot of healthy ingredients and no eggs, as one of my daughters was allergic as a baby. I formulated this for the babies at first, but I'm addicted to it! All my friends love these muffins. Instead of white sugar this recipe uses molasses, which adds iron.

Tasty without a lot of sugar. I substituted honey as molasses not available. Made 2 small loaves + 12 muffins. Enjoyed by neighbor also. - 4/18/14

Yes, I've used honey many times too. I prefer the molasses flavor the best, but honey makes a good muffin too. Thanks for trying!

I'm so glad you tried my recipe and liked it! Lately I've been subbing in applesauce for half the oil and also using all whole wheat flour instead of a mixture. Figured I'd save myself some calories, and the babies are getting older too, so they don't need as much fat. It's still very good, I think.
