Golden Harvest Muffins II

Submitted by Claudia Dawn

"This recipe differs slightly from MarieAlice's as it uses applesauce in place of the oil and prunes instead of nuts for a lower fat version. These are extremely moist that you will want to refrigerate and/or freeze what you will not use in 3 or 4 days. Those of you on Weight Watchers, I've calculated that one muffin is equal to 4 points."

Oh, these are wonderful!! I halved the recipe but kept the 2 egg whites. There is a ton of wonderful healthy stuff in here. I must tell you that I have tried many muffin recipes with lots in them, and often they don't have the right proportions of stuff to flour. This was perfect. I loved the prunes. They added some nice sweetness. Oh, and I used 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup splenda. We will make these often! Thanks so much, Claudia Dawn.
