Pro Tips

How can I make my muffins more moist?

Lots of bakers favor oil made cupcakes to butter made muffins because they are more moist and oils like Mazola® Corn Oil help bring out the sugar and flavors of the cupcake. What oil does to muffins is to keep them moist, tender and flavorful for a longer time than cupcakes that have been prepared with butter.

Please note that:

Very limited and preliminary scientific evidence suggests that eating about 1 tablespoon (16 grams) of corn oil daily may reduce the risk of heart disease due to the unsaturated fat content in corn oil. FDA concludes that there is little scientific evidence supporting this claim. To achieve this possible benefit, corn oil is to replace a similar amount of saturated fat and not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day. One serving of this product contains 14 grams of corn oil.
Corn oil is a cholesterol-free food that contains 14g of total fat per serving. See nutrition information on product label or at www.mazola.com for fat and saturated fat content.
