You can make these muffins with whole wheat flour or a half-and-half ratio of whole wheat flour to refined wheat flour too. When using whole wheat flour ensure to sieve the flour 2-3 times before using it in the recipe.
HOW TO SERVE THE ABC MUFFINS
I like to make these ahead of time during my weekly snack prep and store them in an airtight container for the week. They stay fresh for the week when stored in a cool dry cupboard when the temperatures are low or store them in airtight containers in your refrigerators.
Heat in the microwave before serving the baby.
I serve the muffins with a cup of milk for a quick filling breakfast on busy mornings.
For babies under 1, cut the muffins into appropriate sizes for babies to self-feed and serve them with some yogurt for breakfast or snack.
