Whole Wheat Muffins

I am trying to incorporate more whole grains into my diet for better health. This recipe for whole wheat muffins uses half white flour and half whole wheat. I decided to make these tonight because my niece gave me some silicone muffin cups for Christmas and I wanted to try them out. No more scrubbing muffin pans for me!

Ingredients
* 1 cup all-purpose flour
* 1 cup whole wheat flour
* 1/2 cup white sugar
* 3 teaspoons baking powder
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 3/4 cup milk
* 1/3 cup vegetable oil
* 1 egg

Directions
1. Heat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C). Grease bottoms only of 12 muffin cups or line with baking cups.
2. In a medium bowl, combine flours, sugar, baking powder and salt; mix well. In a small bowl, combine milk, oil and egg; blend well.
3. Fill cups 2/3 full. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 1 minute before removing from pan. Serve warm.


I calculated the nutrition info for this using the loseit! app, note that this is assuming nonfat milk:

These were really great warm out of the oven. I used a little yogurt spread, and voila, yum!
