What is National Muffin Day?

National Muffin Day, on February 20th, is a popular celebration that includes flavor and options.

Bakeries in various sizes are available for these single-serving quick breads. They also have a variety of nutritional value, from mini bite-sized muffins and jumbo ones to the coveted muffin tops. A muffin can be high in fat and calories depending on the ingredients. However, substituting whole grains, changing a few other ingredients, and limiting the serving size will all improve a muffin's nutritional quality.

Baking with fresh fruits and berries adds a pop of color to muffins. It also prevents them from becoming dry as they bake. The blueberry muffin is one of America's most popular muffins. Mixing in nuts and oats is another way to add flavor and texture. Bakers often have bits of chocolate and bananas that must be used. Your muffin eaters will be happy in the morning, too, if mixing them into the muffin batter.
