I received a $25 Meijer Gift Card (to create my recipe) and a $100 Meijer Gift Card in exchange for this post. All opinions expressed here are my own.
I have currently worked with two big M’s. No, not M & M’s, Metamucil and Meijer. I have recently partnered with them to bring awareness of the health benefits of fiber.
I have never used Metamucil, so I am excited to see what it does for my family as far as fiber content goes. Did you know that there are some amazing recipes you can create with Metamucil as an ingredient?
I received Berry Smooth and Orange Smooth Metamucil and was given recipe ideas to create with the product. For a full list of Metamucil recipes, click link below
I had a tough time choosing a recipe to create for this particular post, but I am looking forward to trying the other recipes in the future.
I chose to make the Morning Meta Muffins, but with a twist! Instead of using Original Smooth Metamucil in the original recipe idea, I used Berry Smooth. Since my 8 year old just loves cooking in the kitchen, she helped me make these amazing muffins. She was intriqued that the muffin batter turned a pinkish-red due to the berry smooth powder.
Here is the recipe for Morning Meta Muffins

The Morning Meta Muffins turned out amazing! They also tasted amazing as well. I will be honest, I was nervous that they wouldn’t taste good with Metamucil being one of the ingredients. But now giving it a shot, I think this product is fantastic in recipes.
You can purchase Metamucil on Amazon along with other popular retailers.
Have you ever used Metamucil in a recipe? Would you be willing to give it a shot? Would love to hear from you!
I want to say a big thank you to the folks over at Meijer and Metamucil for allowing me this opportunity. Metamucil is now a part of my family’s diet.
I’ve been wanting to try out those muffins, they look so good.
I never knew you could cook with Metamucil. Good to know it didn’t make the muffins taste funny.
This sound yummy and would be super attractive to little kids who love bright colors {and need help in the fiber department}!
Those look great and seems like such an easy way to get in some more fiber!
Those look delicious!
I would have never thought to mix fiber into muffins. What a great idea for the kids that don’t like to take medicine.
These look fantastic!! I bet my kids would eat them just because they are orange:)
Does it mess with the texture at all? I can’t imagine it would but sometimes the smallest change can make it have a different texture – thanks for the share!
Hi Jackie,
When I was mixing the batter I did notice the texture changed which had me worried. LOL! The muffins did turn out great, but I did notice the end result is just a little stickier than that of traditional muffins. Hope that helps! And thanks!
Yummy delicious muffins!! And what a great way to sneak some fiber in!!
