My neighbor gave me some fresh blueberries, so I made these! So glad I did. DS ate all but 2 (out of 12), so I think he liked them. I liked that they weren't as sweet as other muffins I have made. I didn't have splenda, so I used sugar (gasp!). Also, I used butter instead of margarine. I added a bit of almond flavoring as well. These will be a definite make again recipe. Made for Holiday tag.

These were fantastic muffins! I have to admit I made a few changes, mostly to make them vegan. I used apple sauce and bicarb soda in place of the eggs and a vegan margarine. I also used regular sugar in place of the Splenda and honey (just over 1 cup) I used the vanilla extract but also popped in 1/2 tsp almond essence. Made for ZWT6 (Voracious Vagabonds)

Outstanding. I will admit to not using the mixer method. I mixed the dry ingredients, cut in the margarine, added frozen berries, put all of the liquid ingredients into a cup and added them all at once. Then just stirred till it was just mixed (skipped the honey). I downsized the recipe to 4 muffins and got 6 beautiful muffins. They are light, fluffy and very yummy. Oh Yeah, I added 1/4 tsp of ground ginger..almost forgot that. Thanks Boomie for posting :D.
