Fantastic muffins! I made a couple of changes due to what I had on hand... I used 1/2 sugar blend splenda and 1/2 brown sugar blend splenda; I used applesauce plus a tbsp of canola oil to make up 1/2 cup of butter, and 1/2 cup of my flour was whole wheat. I also sprinkled a bit of cinnamon sugar on top for crunch, and threw in a handful of walnuts. They turned out fabulous! These are definately a recipe I'll make again! My muffins were large, so I got 9 instead of 16. Thanks so much, Brooke!! Made for Zaar Stars Tag.

Love these! Made the batter last night and kept in the fridge then baked them up fresh this morning to take into work! Everyone loved them! I did sub out the butter with 1/2 cup of no sugar added applesauce. This made 12 large muffins for me! Thanks for posting brooke! [Made for Holiday Tag March 2010]

These are so good Brooke. I used 4 banana's, regular flour, and went less on the butter by 1/4 cup and used 1/2 cup non-sweetened applesauce in place of. A great tasting banana muffin. :-)

yum! Very banana-y yet not very sweet. I used regular flour as I ran out of bread flour.

Made these according to the recipe (using very ripe bananas) & these really made for a satisfying breakfast treat ~ Much nicer than those from the bakery! Thanks for posting the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Every Day Is a Holiday tag]
