     Great muffins!!!! Batter is very thick compared to most muffins, however taste and texture are great. Very moist and filling because of all the fiber! I was looking for ways to use chia seeds and I found it! The only thing is I used paper liners and the batter stuck pretty bad to the liner. A++++ - 1/10/10

     This recipe is awesome! I love them, but I made 11 big muffins instead of 22. They would be too small. :) - 10/2/15

     How about using egg beaters rather than eggs for fewer calories ? Perhaps less syrup, add water to make a cup ? Barbara - 10/1/15

     I used honey in place of syrup & my own fresh pumpkin!! and chopped walnuts in place of flax/chia. Gives it a chewy texture! - 9/12/11

     I used 1/2 c. maple syrup and less 1/4 tsp salt because the baking soda is salty. Also I used 1 TBSP oil and 1/4 c. unsweetened applesauce and used egg whites instead of whole eggs. They were still plenty sweet and chewy. I brought them to a party to serve w/chili and they were a hit! - 1/16/16

     Would like to know what size muffin tin you are using. I have standard muffin tins and small / bite size muffin tins. I have never seen a 22 muffin tin, so are you using 2 standard size tins with water in the unused muffin cups? If 22 standard muffins, that is less than 1 TBSP maple syrup/muffin. - 7/7/12
