Calculating Nutritional info for things made from scratch

Hello Everyone! I was wondering if anyone knew the best way to calculate the nutritional information for things made from scratch. I made muffins, and short of putting in 1/6 of each ingredient (because that's how many muffins the ingredients produced), anyone have an easier idea?

MFP has a built in feature for that, click on the link @obscuremusicreference posted and input your ingredients, go through and match anything that wasn't automatically sorted, and you'll have your nutritional info by serving. :-)0

Yes. In case you didn't understand the link above, what you do is create a recipe. You enter all the ingredients and the number of servings and then when you eat a serving all you do is enter that when you log. Some recipes don't tell you what the portion size is so in those cases you'll have to measure what you made and divide. Good luck!0
