Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    The fiber in whole wheat flour and dates combines to make each muffin a good source of fiber, which is 10% of the Daily Value.
  • tip 2
    For a breakfast that truly satisfies and has 3 Carbohydrate Choices, enjoy a warm muffin with scrambled eggs and a serving of fresh fruit.
  • tip 3
    Iraq is the world's largest producer of dates. A typical mature date tree produces 200 to 300 pounds of fruit each year.
