What can you use instead f sunflower oil in muffins?
Yes, you can. Olive oil will affect the flavor of the muffins, so would be most successful in savory muffins - corn, cheese or spicy muffins with sage and thyme, or chopped onion and celery. For sweet muffins, I recommend canola oil because it has a neutral taste. But olive oil works for sweet muffins, too. It's used in several types of Italian cakes.
Can you use extra virgin olive oil for muffins?
It depends on what type of muffins you're baking. Extra virgin olive oil is the most flavorful of olive oils, being the product of the first pressing of the olives; therefore, it has a very distinct, olive-like flavor. So, if you're making sweet muffins, it would be better to use canola or vegetable oil. Those oils don't really have much flavor, and won't affect the taste. But, if you're making muffins that are heartier (using bran or granola or nuts, and very little, if any, sugar/fruit), then olive oil may be an interesting flavor to add.

Can you use peach juice instead of oil in muffins?
Yes, you can use peach juice as a substitute for oil in muffins, but it may affect the texture and moisture level. Since juice is liquid, it can help keep the muffins moist, but it won't provide the same fat content or richness that oil does. You may need to adjust other liquid ingredients slightly to maintain the right batter consistency. Overall, it's a creative alternative that can add a fruity flavor to your muffins.
Why do we need vegetable oil in muffins?
Vegetable oil is essential in muffins because it contributes to moisture, creating a tender and soft texture. It also helps to evenly distribute fat throughout the batter, which can enhance the overall flavor. Additionally, oil can improve the shelf life of muffins by keeping them fresher for longer compared to recipes that use butter.
