    I love these muffins ! For me personally, they are quite addictive ! And inexpensive to make ! They are a huge hit in our house. Sometimes I haven't had the unsweetened applesauce around & so I use whatever I have & they still turn out great ( just a tad more sugar in them). Give them a try! - 11/4/11

    really easy. i substitued whole wheat flour, real butter for the oil, and added crushed walnuts and dried cherries! made a vanilla sea salt frosting (just a tiny bit on them)and it transformed it into a muffin/cupcake, great alternative for cupcakes! - 7/3/11

    Good! Did not do the cinnamon & sugar on top, I added it in the mixture based on some of the other comments. I also added vanilla to the steel cut oatmeal & raisins. They came out a bit chewy, but i tried to avoid over mixing. I will make this again. - 1/10/11

    I loved these, as did my husband, who is very picky. Next time I'm going to add raisins to jazz them up just a bit. - 3/3/09

    These were very good. We can't get applesauce in large quantities in the UK so I used apple pie filling instead and they came out great. - 12/15/08
