A very tasty, yet still healthy muffin. I did make a few changes, but the result was a tasty, not-too-sweet muffin that tastes like banana nut bread. I added about a 1/2 tsp of baking powder in addition to the baking soda, omitted one of the eggs and substituted another 1/4 cup of applesauce instead. Also since the applesauce is sweet I only used 1/2 cup of brown sugar, but they would have been fine with the sugar as well. I also made as streusel topping with brown sugar, a bit of margarine and oatmeal to add a bit of texture and sweetness on top. Good recipe; I like the use of flax seed and applesauce instead of oil.
