"For a variation reduce flour amount 2 tablespoons and add in 2 tablespoons flax, a great addition is 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries or 1/2 to 3/4 cup raisins mixed into the flour mixture, if using blueberries this will increase yield to 12 muffins. I haven't tryed it yet with this recipe but I imagine for a completely fat-free and a low cholesterol option try replacing the whole egg with two egg whites"
