    Well, I just made them---- They smell wonderful---taste a bit bland---They are OK---Will I make them again--- No--probably not-- - 9/20/10

    These were great! I did substitute real sugar (1/3 C) since I don't do artificial sweetners or splenda. I will make these again. Tasted like banana nut bread. - 6/15/08

    I used choc protein powder because I didn't have any vanilla. They turned out very good. I would even suggest adding cinnamon and nutmeg. Great for a snack! - 6/11/08

    These were so good! Next time I will try the banana cream protein to up the banana taste!!! My hubby loved these. - 6/13/08

    My husband is diabetic so I will definitly make this.I will use unsweetened applesauce instead of oil. - 6/8/08

    I wliked these very much. It is possible to buy individual envelopes of protein powder to make it cost effective for those who don't want to buy a large amount of it. - 6/8/08

    Moist muffins with great taste! I store them in the fridge and eat one for an on-the-run breakfast every morning! - 9/4/10

    If you can't eat wheat/gluten, use: 7/8 cup brown rice flour, 1/4 cup potato starch, 3/8 cup tapioca flour, 1 Tbsp. flax-seed meal, and 1 tsp. xanthun gum (a binder) to replace the 1 and 1/2 cups wheat flour in this mix. Use rice or soy based protein powder as well. - 6/8/08

    This recipe base hits the spot for me, healthier but not fatfree and dry. I added 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp nutmeg and 1/2 banana more as well as some chopped figs for flavour and used "half spoon" sweetener to taste rather than pure splenda. Next time i'll use more banana and even less sugar. - 4/7/13

    This is a great recipe, and I agree about the breakfast item! But I substitute Spelt flour, instead of white or wheat...NO lutens in it...and I sub Agave Nectur (a wonderful NATURAL sweetener) for the sugar, so it's great, healthy, and YUMMY! - 7/10/08

    Pretty good. A little sweet. I might reduce the Splenda next time I make them. - 7/17/08

    I like these very much. I used 1/3 cup sugar instead of Splenda which made a tasty, less sweet version. - 10/17/07

    Love that this is higher protein. I added 2 tablespoons of milled flax seed. Next time I will also add cinnamon! - 1/9/13

    I used banana protein instead of vanilla. These are super awesome to grab and go! - 11/6/11

    Just made these but changed the recipe a bit; lessened the milk and oil and substitued applesauce instead; also added some cinnamon and nutmeg. A little bland, needed a pinch of salt, otherwise good - 9/20/10

    Yum! The muffins are nice and moist, and easy to get out of the pan. I had orange-flavored protein powder so that's what I used -- not an obvious orange taste in the muffins, but they're good. I also didn't have wheat flour on hand; used 1.25 cups white and .25 cup wheat bran. It worked out well. - 3/28/10

    Will definitely try these! For those who want to try honey instead of Splenda check out this link http://www.realfoodliving.com/sugars.htm - 7/10/08

    I added in some dark chocolate chips and used pecans instead of walnuts. My kids were eating them up as fast as I could get them out the oven! - 6/10/08

    Why rate it if you can;t/won;t eat it. Protein powder can go in many things. And this recipe looks like a yummy one. - 6/8/08

    Not healthy at all. White flower and Splenda are killers - 6/19/13
