     Oh my goodness! These are simply divine! I added some cinnamon and nutmeg to the dry ingredients and it worked really well. Thank you so much for posting. At last I have a healthy addiction. - 8/27/08

     One of the best banana muffin recipes thus far. Others were either too dry or too dense. I substituted whole wheat flour and brown sugar as a healthier option. Also added some chopped walnuts, oats and cinnamon. I greased paper cups and had no problem with sitcking. Baked for an additional 5mins. - 7/10/14

     Oh my goodness these are soooooo good! They are so light and spongy. I doubled the recipe and added cinnamon and used only 2 teaspoons of baking powder and used strawberry yogurt and they turned out so well. - 4/23/14

     Very Good!! I used the apple sauce instead of yogurt and I freeze overripe bananas and use them for more flavor. - 11/11/09

     Sooo good, just like my mom's banana bread with a lot less calories! I used Splenda instead of sugar and added 1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts - fantastic and still only 90 calories! I greased the muffin tin with Pam (don't use liners, they will stick) and they popped right out. - 2/4/13

     Need to cut the baking powder down to 2 Tsp *OR* do what I do and add a lot of spices: 1 Tsp of Pumpkin Pie spice cuts the bitterness. Really worth trying for a super-low cal muffin. I use 1/2 C. minute oats and 1/2 C. flour for a heartier texture. - 9/24/12

     Delicious! I added blueberries. They did stick to the papers, so I might try greasing the pan instead next time. (commented again because I forgot to rate..oops) - 1/25/12

     Made mine without egg but with Banana flavoured yogurt. Tastes very good, my kids love them to. - 1/4/11

     Nice Flavor!
    Baking time was MUCH longer than advised in the recipe. I have a convection oven. It should have been the same or less.
    They stick to paper cups. There's not enough fat in the muffins to allow them to release from the paper. I guess that's a good thing, but... - 8/27/09

     These muffins are to die for. Biggest problem is trying to have only one. They turned out perfect. - 2/4/18
  • NELLJONES
     I used full fat yogurt, the egg isn't enough fat to make the muffin moist. - 2/4/18

     Entire family loves these, had to buy a second muffin tray so I can make more in one baking as I've been making them two or three times a week. - 1/10/18
  • ANHELIC
     What an awesome muffin. Usually the muffins I made before were dry. These were really moist and light. I used applesauce this time and they were moist and soft. I added cinnamon and nutmeg to them for a little more flavor. I also used silicone muffin tins and froze 9 of them for later. Great. - 12/22/17

     Followed instructions to a tee. These little beauties came out perfect. I love making recipes that not only help me to reach my weight loss goals, but are so delicious. The family doesn't think twice before diving right on in. Kinda sneaky huh? - 7/31/17
