Your are right, Kree, these ARE delicious and easy! I made them Vegan by substituting the egg with 1 medium banana (mashed) and reduced calories by substituting the oil with applesauce. This made them sweet enough to eliminate the sugar! The extra volume of these substitutions makes around 14 muffins. I am going to skip the salt next time, too. They are very yummy and filling. With the substituions they are only 90 calories each. Thank you for this recipe! Teresa

Very nice light muffins! I made the mistake of forgetting the sugar so I pulled them out of the oven and sprinkled brn sugar with cinnimon on the tops. They were delish! Then I put in brn sugar in the rest of the batter. I used a mixture of chopped and grated apples and 1 pear. Will make again. Only needed 15 minutes.

I used applesauce instead of oil and the muffins were moist and light. We found the baking powder flavor to be rather strong though. Next time I would try cutting it back to 2 tsp. and adding some vanilla to see if that helps the flavor. I was out of raisins so I used a large granny smith apple. Thanks for sharing!

I'm a real estate agent in the lovely city of Rochester, New York. That's not what I expected to do with my life. I got my bachelor's in psychology, my masters in literacy education, and I taught high school special education for two years. Then I discovered that helping people find the homes of their dreams was my real passion. I've been doing it for over two years now and still absolutely love my career.
Other than that, I have a very spoiled Border Collie mix named Bear that I adopted from a local shelter in spring '08. He's gorgeous and fun and brings me great joy. Now if only I could find a man like that... LOL!
