Very good! I also used all whole wheat flour. I used 1/2 cup brown sugar & 1/3 cup Splenda. I just used 2 tsp cinn, 1 cup quick oats, skim milk & applesauce for the oil. A very yummy muffin-I got 16 muffins. Thanks!

I made a few changes and got very good muffins, tasty, moist and filling : I used all whole-wheat flour (2 cups), 2 tsp cinnamon, threw in 2 big chopped Cortland apples (in step 2). Since I only had one egg left in the fridge, I used 1 heaping tbsp ground flaxseeds mixed with 1 tbsp water as a substitute for the 2nd egg. I made 12 very big muffins and baked them for 25 minutes, which was perfect. Thanks for posting!

These were good but just was a bit too bland for me even with the cinnamon. Well worth making though.
