  1. These were great! Only needed to cook for 20 minutes though.
     
  2. These were so good!! Brought them to the office and they were gone in a manner of seconds!! :) Used canola oil instead of butter and low-fat milk. Baked them for about 20 minutes in a 350F oven. Thanks! :)
     
  3. My kiddos and I loved it! I made the following changes: 1 cup all purpose flour, 3/4 cup whole wheat flour, 1/2 cup finely milled flax seeds and 1-1/2 cups chocolate chips. The muffins turned out slightly dense and just perfectly sweet (not too sweet). The kids enjoyed them for breakfast and snacks. Thanks for a great recipe!
     
  4. My son loved these, absolutely easy to make. I followed the recipe exactly and made them in paper cups. a lovely way to use up that last squishy banana
     
  5. I am so sorry to say that we were really unhappy with the results of this recipe. I followed it perfectly and the only way that these muffins were edible were because of the chocolate chips I did not like the smell or the taste of the muffins. The bread taste of the mffins did not smell or taste right at all. Iamso sorry to give you a bad review on these but...Not the best. Sorry :-(

  2. This is a great muffin recipe, not too sweet and uses up that sad black banana in the fruit bowl. I used butter instead of oil and raw sugar as I'd run out of brown but the results were delicious. The recipe made 12 large muffins and the kids loved them. Thanks for posting this one, I'll definitely make these again.
