    Good healthy muffin. I did not have buttermilk so I added 1 T lemon juice to my milk. Also used old fashioned oats and soaked them a bit longer. Next time I would make some sort of topping - cinnamon/sugar probably. - 3/15/11

    these are a keeper; had to use yogurt and milk for the buttermilk however, and I used old fashioned rolled oats, just soaked em longer. - 5/27/09
