     I made these last night, but I modifies it to make it even more healthier. I used brown rice flour and coconut flour, no molasses, used honey instead. Used coconut oil instead of olive oil. Didn't use salt or oatmeal. Muffins were supper moist and yummy. - 9/22/13

     These muffins were really good, both my husband and I enjoyed them. They actually were better the next day. Color, texture, and flavor was very good. We sprinkled stevia on top just to make them a little sweeter for our taste. Thanks for sharing. - 7/11/10

     sounds yummy, will try soon, has anyone tried subbing some applesauce for some of the oil? Might be a good way to bring down the fat. Also, I can't find blackstrap molasses here, anyone know how much brown sugar I should use? - 12/13/08

     Ok this is my new favorite sweet recipe. These are incredible. Tried several other recipes before I found this one and it is definately the best. Will not be trying anymore. My hubby is diabetic and he loved these. - 4/2/08
