When baking, use Greek yogurt to reduce or replace shortening, oil or butter. This cuts fat and makes muffins extra moist and tender.

  • Eggs, 2 large
  • Canola oil, ¼ cup(s), or vegetable oil
  • Vanilla extract, 1 tsp(s)
  • All purpose flour, 2½ cup(s)
  • Sugar, 1½ cup(s)
  • Cinnamon, ground, 1½ tsp(s)
  • Baking soda, 1 tsp(s)
  • Ground cloves, 1 tsp(s)
