18 minutes wayyy to long, i took mine out at 15 and they were perfect! I also used honey instead and added some choco chips. I pureed an apple instead of applesauce. So yummy! Also added flax and wheat bran for some extra fiber! Also added a little extra virgin olive oil in the batter so no sticking - 3/6/11

Seriously, I do not know what I did wrong! Am I missing part of the recipe or something? My muffins tasted great, but they were complete mush.. It seems like I am missing some dry ingredients. Hmmm.. They basically looked like the inside of a buttertart. Any clue what did I do wrong?! - 11/20/12
