I think a little more splenda/sweetness and a little more cinnamon was needed. They are great toasted with a little smart balance and cinnamon sugar - 2/23/10

Please, please, please! This is scary and it put a big question mark on everything else. When I see a diet muffin recipe of 2,600 calories, I wonder who revised this posting and what about other recipes? - 11/14/09

I made these tonight and they were good. I used all whole wheat flour. My whole family liked them and they are very picky. I will make them again. - 11/18/08

I am making applesauce muffins this weekend and I will include this recipe as well. I have some POM's that need to be eaten. - 11/6/08

I think the nutritional info must be really wrong. It says it makes 12 muffins. I don't recall ever seeing any recipe with those numbers. Wow, this would be way too much for anyone to be eating! I will make this as it sounds delicious and I love anything made with whole wheat flour. - 11/6/08

I made them this morning and they were great. I used a litlle honey instead of splenda for the sweetener. I also only used whole wheat flour. My family loved it.
