I agree! We always have to keep thinking about what is in the food to make it rise or make it sweet or make it "low fat" In my opinion, I would rather be fat than skinny from having cancer! Self rising flour is one of those things some people just don't think about because it is all they have ever used. They charge a premium for their "old fashioned" goodness because their name has stood the test of time. In truth, they are using the cheapest ingredients to make their products.
It will say aluminium free on the front of the package. You can also check the ingredients list. Or, you can make your own baking powder from baking soda and cream of tartar.
I used Old Fashioned oats because that is what I use in my house. I never buy quick oats because they are sub standard and if I want quick oats I can just run the old fashioned ones through the food processor. Yes you can use all white flour if that is your preference, however the nutritive value of the muffin goes much lower than when you use half white wheat flour.
Hi Noreen. I have been meaning to send you a quick post to say what a huge hit this muffin mix is in our house. I've made several batches of blueberry muffins and one cinnamon apple. All turned out fantastic. Thanks for sharing this recipe! Linda H
Thank you so much for this recipe! My mom has been ill since December, in & out of hospital, while out I have been staying with her and helping her out and she loves muffins (especially Blueberry muffins). I will definitely be taking this mix out to her house!
Noreen I have been watching u for about 2 yrs now n I always check ur vids to do my recipes better. U r amazing n many of my recipes have ur tips n of course w my spin on it. Keep it up, u hp us young gals on emergencies to having dinner on the table faster n tasty 3
Noreen I'm eager to try this as I love to bake & my family loves to eat, so I guess it's a win - win situation! lol! This recipe reminds me of one that a dear neighbor gave me many years ago, when my kids were just toddlers. Now my kids have their own children & they're past the toddler stage. Anyway, back the to the recipe. It was called 6 week Muffins I believe. It was made from a whole box of Raisin Bran, along with eggs, flour, sugar and so on. After you had it all mixed up it was supposed to last in the refrigerator for 6 weeks & it too yielded 6 dozen muffins. My family didn't care for raisins, so I found a cereal that was just a flake cereal & they loved them. One time I went to a family event for the weekend & took a whole batch of them planning on having them for breakfast the next day, well I don't know if it was one of the kids or one of the guys, but before I could say "hey those were for breakfast" they were half gone! I bet you've had that happen to you a time or two. Thanks for the great recipe.
I don't use self rising flour because I don't know the quality of the additives they have put in the flour. I am fairly certain that they do not use an aluminum free baking powder in that flour. You use what you like, however, my personal choice is to truly make this from scratch.
Hi Noreen I enjoy watching you cook and bake you made my life so easy when I don't know what to cook I just true on my tablet. and make one of your receipt so thankyou Maria Malta
Is it better to store this in the fridge/freezer or will it last just as long in the pantry? Do you think this would be a good gift? I was thinking maybe a mason jar with pretty ribbon and fabric as a new home gift or new mom.
Nice mix to have on hand since it contains baking powder what is the shelf life of the mix. I know baking powder loses leavening power as it ages? Also is cane sugar from Hawaii non GMO?
Thanks for sharing.....I will be making this soon...... Now I have something to put in my new cans A lady that lives down the street brought me 18 #10 cans and lids (new in the boxes) I had told her I had a can sealer and she had them just taking up room.....isn't that wonderful....
Noreen you know I love your videos and your cameraman is awesome. I would just like to request 1 thing, more camera time for sissy dog. LOL I love that dog. I am her biggest fan. :)
Noreen, Question - The recipe for the muffin states, "2 large eggs white". Is that suppose to be 2 large egg whites? OR 2 large eggs? Please let me know as it will make a big difference. Thanks!!
Actually it is. I just checked it from my desktop and the link works fine. Takes you to a PDF of the recipe. This recipe does not have a dedicated page on my website due to design issues at the time this video was published.
No, I don't, sorry. I make my biscuits and pancakes from scratch. It is easy to do and you have everything you need anyway. I don't find a mix that useful for those recipes because there are so few ingredients to begin with.

Noreen you are such a sweet person, you have a very busy life yet take time to share your wonderful recipes with us all! Thanks
I like the idea of having a mix on hand for the grandkids. Thanks for the video.
I really enjoy watching all of your videos. It makes my day go by a lot better.
Noreen...as usual a winner of a recipe. Thanks for sharing!
Great idea, this mix will come in handy when school starts...thanks!

This is a fantastic bulk recipe. Noreen for people like myself who aren't familiar with a number 10 can, what size is the can please?
Fantastic!!!!!!!!
love this...especially the addition of the oats!
Noreen, you're looking great!
Noreen your amazing and will always be my favorite lady I turn too to make goodies for work potlucks and holiday cookie exchanges.

It should read eggs. That was an error on my part! Thanks for noticing
Nice mix to have on hand since it contains baking powder what is the shelf life of the mix. I know baking powder loses leavening power as it ages? Also is cane sugar from Hawaii non GMO?
Nice mix,where did u get thoes big tin can they look sturdy n good to store. Large portions.;)
Wonderful, Do you have a mix for biscuits? bisquick is soo expensive. Thanks
Cane sugar is not GMO. Katzcradul confirmed that. Make sure your sugar says Pure Cane Sugar. The recipe has the information about how long to store.
Thanks for sharing.....I will be making this soon......
Now I have something to put in my new cans
A lady that lives down the street brought me 18 #10 cans and lids (new in the boxes) I had told her I had a can sealer and she had them just taking up room.....isn't that wonderful....
Thank you for sharing.

How do you know if the baking powder is aluminum free?
i was wondering why you put Old Fashioned oats in it and can you use all white flour in it?
can we use soy milk or almond milk instead of regular milk?
cool I so hate remembering to buy muffin mix when we want muffins
can you use instant oats?
noreen, You always mention putting a recipe on the link below. I don't see where that is
thanks
Yes, just plain old fashioned oats. That is what will be on the label. Not instant and not quick oats. The regular old fashioned type.
Can you put a direct link to the recipe. I've searched and searched your site and can't find it.
the link is in the description box below the video.
Actually it isn't. The link is labelled, "find this recipe..." which doesn't work.
Actually it is. I just checked it from my desktop and the link works fine. Takes you to a PDF of the recipe. This recipe does not have a dedicated page on my website due to design issues at the time this video was published.

Not only that but it's a waste of money!
