I substituted 1 1/4 cup sugar for 36 packets of equal. Also substituted baking soda for 1 1/2 tsp baking powder and omitted salt.<br/><br/>divided this recipe in half - did 3/4 cup apple sauce with Pampered Chef sweet cinnamon sprinkle in one half, 3 small/medium overripe bananas and 3/4 cup crushed almonds in other half. Made 4 dozen mini muffins per half! That's 4 doz apple cinnamon mini muffins and 4 doz banana nut mini muffins!<br/><br/>They came out super delicious! Sweet enough without being over sweet. <br/>One mini muffin comes to 30 cals, .2 fat, 6.4 carbs, .6 protien, 0 sat. and trans fat, .2 fiber, 3.2 sugar. All - in - all a very delicious low-cal, low-fat muffin for desert or breakfast or anytime! :)
