What form is fat in when used to make muffins?
You can make muffins without fats or oils. The better oils are the oils that are both easy to mix and are good for you and improve the taste from a dry muffin to a moist and chewy muffin that is greasy. The choice is yours. Muffins are dry little things and to me only need a teaspoon of olive oil per 5 muffins. If you need more oily flavor then add butter after the muffin is cooked and hot by splitting the muffin and add a pat of butter. Caution: Any food made with unsaturated oils can become heart damaging if the food is heated so hot that it turns brown. The oils can become trans fats when heated. So the best oils for cooking is right back to the saturated fats that need to be melted to add to the ingredients, like bacon fat, beef fat, and butter! Unsaturated fat like soy and corn oil and canola are so aggressive at destroying DNA if they are fried or overheated that many cities have banned using them for food sales.

Whether it's a good idea or not is another issue. It's certainly not exceptionally bright; if you get delayed (flat tire, stuck in traffic, ran into that friend who JUST WON'T SHUT UP) and your food overcooks, it's at minimum going to be a mess and might even catch fire.

Why do you need oil when making muffins?
The oil is the "shortening" that makes the crumb of the muffin tender. In most muffin recipes you can substitute unsweetened applesauce for half of the oil to lower the fat and calories and it will still be tender.

How would you describe muffins?
In England a muffin is a yeast raised type of bread bun. It is baked in a mould and is usually flat on top and bottom with slightly bulging sides. It is not seeded but sometimes has a dusting of corn meal. It is eaten by tearing it into two halves (never cutting it) from side to side. This gives a half muffin with one side composed of the white inside and the other the baked crust. Both sides are then toasted, the baked side first, preferably in front of an open fire. Then the last side to be toasted is buttered and you eat. Butter is usually deemed to be sufficient. Honey or fruit jam if you wish.
