These are fan-freaking-tastic! I am blown away by how moist and delicious they are. I shredded the apple instead of dicing it which I think made the muffins even more moist. Used egg beaters & skim milk, and a batch made 18 generous-sized muffins, making each one just 2 WW points. A definite keeper!

Great recipe! Make no mistake these are healthy muffins, but they are very tasty, moist healthy muffins. You would never know these are low fat. I shredded the apple to spread the moisture and taste throughout the muffin. They turned out great. My kids (1 and 3 years) eat them every night as a bedtime snack and they really look forward to it.

These are EXCELLENT! I served these to several medics at my clinic that usually do not like anything termed 'healthy.' They were very surprised to hear how healthy these were because they loved these. Very moist. I have made these with craisins instead of raisins before.
