  4. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients just until moistened.

Helpful hints

  • By using egg substitute instead of egg and rice milk instead of milk, phosphorus is reduced from 130 mg to 100 mg. The baking powder contributes 76 mg phosphorus to each muffin. Limit portion to one muffin.
  • Do not substitute self-rising corn meal — it’s higher in phosphorus.
  • Freeze leftover muffins and reheat for a quick meal addition later.
  • To make skillet-baked cornbread instead of muffins use a medium-size iron skillet and decrease sugar to 2 tablespoons.
