This IS mighty spicy - and I LOVE the flavour! I used gluten free flour and made it into six nice big muffins which took 20 minutes to bake. So moist and chewy, I will definitely make these again! Thanks for posting :)<br/>Made for Ramadan Tag 2011

This lives up to its name-it is NOT shy on spices. Loved the cardamom with the apple. Quite moist for being so low in fat. And is sweet enough for me with just 2 tbls. sugar. Nutrition facts listed are for the WHOLE loaf, so if you get 8-10 slices, the fat and sugars are really low per slice. Thanks for posting this keeper!
