  1. I was looking for a low sugar muffin recipe to make for my 1 year old, so gave this a try and they turned out great! I rated as 4 stars as I made a few adjustments which I thought worked really well - I left out the splenda completely as these were for my baby boy. I didn't increase the amount of sugar, and the sweetness was just right, even my husband and I love these. I used frozen blueberries instead of fresh as that is what I had on hand. Lastly, I didn't make the sugar crumb topping as I didn't feel this recipe needed extra sugar on top given I was wanting to minimize the amount of sugar. I made these as mini muffins, and they are disappearing quickly - I would definitely recommend these!

Still in West Virginia but we've moved a few miles away, down to the county capitol. It's a compromise: bigger than our last town but smalelr than the "big city" of Cumberland MD, right up the road. Jobs are not that plentiful here so I am fortunate to be able to work at home (I'm a writer). My passion is cooking and feeding people family well....my pet peeve is the family court systems in America......my love is for emergency medicine and the people that make survival in a crisis possible
