Butter is glorius, flavorful, healthy stuff, especially butter made from grass-fed, pastured cows. Who knows where your canola oil is even from, much less what's in it? Has it been contaminated with gm rapeseed? I totally agree with your other substitutions but not this one. I must say thank you also for reminding me of my secret huckleberry stash--they make the best sorbet with clementines and prosecco... <blockquote>Good points about GM contamination. I'm in a point in my life where I don't want hidden saturated fat. If I'm going to eat butter- I don't want it lurking in a muffin- I want it melted on top of it where I can get a direct taste bud hit. My butter and saturated fat consumption is much more intentional these days. --McAuliflower</blockquote> Oh Jocelyn, I love your blog but why for pete’s sake would you use canola oil instead of butter for health reasons?

Good points about GM contamination.

I’m in a point in my life where I don’t want hidden saturated fat. If I’m going to eat butter- I don’t want it lurking in a muffin- I want it melted on top of it where I can get a direct taste bud hit. My butter and saturated fat consumption is much more intentional these days.

Muffins sound wonderful and would surely brighten this gray winter day. What am I waiting for?

I would kill for a fresh raspberry muffin right about now. Our freezer is stocked with skirt steaks and chicken soup. You’re a genius! I would kill for a fresh raspberry muffin right about now.

Maybe this week. The weather is pretty awful and some pumpkin soup would help.
