I made this with the following modifications: whole wheat pastry flour instead of all-purpose; 1/2 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup brown sugar instead of 3/4 cup granulated; 1 cup dried cranberries soaked in boiling water (to make them less chewy) instead of 1 1/2; omitted the nuts. I topped them with a simple streusel (flour, brown sugar, butter, oats). They were moist, light, and flavorful. I let them rise for a few minutes in the cups before putting in the oven and they were not very dense.Reply

Nice moist muffins that are full of flavor! They are dense in texture but that makes them perfect with a cup of coffee! Loved the blend of the pumpkin flavor with the dried cranberries. I used a cinnamon/sugar mix for the topping of the muffins. I did omit the nuts as a personal preference. Made for the special event in Healthy Choices tag game.1Reply
