These muffins are very good! After eating a couple of them right out of the oven (and another when cooled), I thought they were a bit dry. BUT, after they sat overnight in a container with a lid, they were just fine. I enjoy muffins made with whole wheat flour and using less sugar, so this recipe using maple syrup as the sweetener interested me. I will add more walnuts next time--at least 2/3 cup or a full cup of broken walnuts. Using a standard muffin pan, it made 13 muffins (one was in a little pyrex bowl). I baked them 20 min at 350 degrees. As soon as they pass the toothpick test, they are ready! They had a nice round top, making an attractive muffin.Reply
