I made these muffins this morning. I had one while it was still warm, and decided they needed some I can't Believe It's not Butter spray. Pretty good with that. :)
I had to use almond milk instead of soy milk, since I'm allergic to the latter, but the calorie, and all, difference is very small. - 1/16/11
