    I used 1/2 cup of wheat and 1/2 cup of white flour and used Splenda and they came out very well. My husband is happy and that totally counts :-)
    (Remember when baking with Splenda it is recommended for every cup used to add 1/2 cup of non fat dry milk and a teaspoon of baking soda).

    These were THE BEST Cornbread muffins I have EVER had! Light and moist and slightly sweet. Not at all dry like most cornbread. - 7/1/07

    I made the recipe as written. The sweetness was just right and the texture was great - light and moist. I'll make them again. - 8/20/08

    Awesome! I added hot pepper flakes, chili powder and lots of cracked black pepper to make them spicy. I thought about adding corn too but hubby doesn't like them. These will replace my normal cornbread muffins! Thanks! - 10/7/07

    very good. I like this recipe. It was very moist. I overbaked them a bit, but they still came out fine. I like this recipe becasue I can freeze the rest of the muffins. - 9/13/07

    These were wonderful! I had vanilla yogurt on hand so that is what I used, and I used fat free milk instead of soy milk. They were delicious! Very moist and sweet. Served with homemade chili. Will definitely make again. - 1/27/10

    I always make a recipe the 1st time as is, until now, just did not have all the ingredients but wanted to make for dinner now. Substituted buttermilk for yogurt and did half/half wheat/white flour. They are moist and tasty, just the right amount of sweet. Keeper!!!! - 3/1/09

    These were delicious and my brother could not stop eating them. My mom thought they were a little too sweet, so I might try putting in less sugar next time. - 11/6/07

    These are very moist and tasty. I used vanilla flavored soy milk which gave them a little more sweetness and flavor. Next time I might try adding a little orange or lime zest. These will definitely be staples in our house. - 10/14/07

    Uh-mazing! I doubt I've EVER had such delicious muffins! Seriously. I followed the recipe exactly except I used Fat-free milk. Used plain yogurt, but will try orange cream next time. Mmmm... - 7/17/11

    I subbed baking splenda for the sugar, no salt sodium free alternative for the salt, evoo for the canola oil, and plain old milk for the soy milk(because I didn't have the soymilk). Doing so reduced the calories as well the sodium which I needed. Thanks for sharing. - 9/26/10

    I used what I had on hand--1% milk (cow's) and Zoi Greek plain nonfat yogurt. I also reduced the sugar to 1/4 c since I don't like super-sweet cornbread. I haven't tried them yet, but they smell delicious!! And they're going with my SP turkey chili recipe I am making right now! Thanks! - 7/31/10

    Hey Jester, hope you report back with how they turned out... I'd like to make these with whole wheat flour and less sugar too. I'd also use almond milk (mmmm). - 1/3/09

    If you were to substitute whole wheat flour, would it still be moist? Trying to get away from white flour... - 6/30/08
