These were very good! Made as directed. I found that mine baked pretty quickly, so keep an eye on them so that they don't over bake.

I used only 1 cup of sugar. It's perfect like that. I didn't want the muffins to be too sweet. I used fresh pumpkin puree I made. I used green apples. I wanted to do only 12 muffins so I baked them about 40 minutes. They have a wonderful taste. Thanks The Daycare Lady :) Made for TYM tag game
