    Love these. Had no problem with the baking at all. I made regular muffins in a 12 cup pan and increased the baking time to about 20 mins at 375. Everyone loves them! - 9/25/07

    Really yummy! I did make some changes this time - I was in a full fledge "chocolate mode", so I replaced 1/4 cup of flour with cocoa powder. And because of this, I replaced the spices with one additional Tbl of flour to fill in the bulk. 24 (full) mini muffins @ 19 minutes, and 2 muffins @ 21 min - 2/2/12

    I halved this recipe and made it to take to work - it was a big hit. I used 1/2 a 15 oz can of pumpkin and baked the mini muffins 12 minutes. They were very moist and I thought maybe I should have baked a couple more minutes but the consensus was they were perfect. - 9/26/14

    So far so good. Think the problem with mushy recipes has to do with the amount of pumpkin. I used a large can, but doubled everything else. Let you know how it turns out :) - 10/26/12

    I'd really like to make this recipe, but I'm wondering about the can of pumpkin. My can has 29 oz. in it. My pumpkin bread recipes all call for maybe a 1/2 c. or a cup, no more. How much pumpkin should I use for these? - 12/11/08
