I just made the first batch, and they're great! I picked this recipe because my 2-yr-old is obsessed with muffins, and I love that this makes such a huge amount and it's a healthier muffin. The toddler has eaten two already this morning and begged for more, and I slapped some butter on mine and enjoyed it thoroughly. If subsequent batches turn out as well as this one, I'll be making this recipe over and over!

I like recipes that use ingredients that are already in my pantry. I won't bother with recipes that include ingredients that I have to hunt down.
