    What a great (and easy) recipe! It doubles very nicely and makes decent size muffins (cupcake size). Great for a diabetic AND dietetic home! I'll surely make them again- thanks! - 10/13/09

    Um, wish you had posted the full directions (including soaking the oatmeal) in the first place. When I first logged on and printed the recipe it didn't include that little tidbit... no wonder mine turned out so dry and chewy. Will have to try these again when I have some more over-ripe bananas. - 11/12/11

    Excellent! I tried this recipe for a large group and had several request for the recipe. I made it a 3 different ways. 1. this recipe exactly. 2. Vegan- I replaced the milk w/ Soy Milk and the egg whites with a vegan egg replacer. 3. followed the recipe exactly but added fresh blueberries. - 7/5/09

    This is my variation and it came out great!
    1 egg, slightly beaten
    1/4 cup white flour, 1/2 wheat flour (3/4 cup)
    2 Tablespoons brown sugar
    1 tsp cinnamon
    2 ounces chopped pecans
    2 ounces mini unsweetened chocolate chips
    Bake at 400 degrees for 25 min
    At 20mins, it seemed uncooked.

    Hello, thanks for the great recipe. My three kids loved them as well as I. I did sprinkle dark choc chips on it for appeal and they were a hit. I enjoyed it much more than opening a bag of thinsations 100 cal snacks:) Will def make them again - 9/2/10

    These are by far the best muffins from scratch I've ever tasted! I added 1/2 c fresh blueberries--had to add 3 mins to cooking time. Cals came to: 92.7, .8fat, 19.1carb, 2.5fiber, 5.4sugar, 3.5protein. These totally ROCK and my kids LOVEEEEED them! Goes great with a spritz of butter spray :) - 8/15/10

    O.K.
    I am not sure what went wrong, but they were in the oven forever and overdone on the outside and still mushy inside. I followed the recipe exactly. I will give it another try sometime..... - 3/2/10

    I will add less brown sugar splenda next time (1/3 c), but they were pretty tasty with 1/2 c chopped pecans. I used egg substitute too. - 10/16/09

    Splenda brown sugar is half real brown sugar, and banana's have sugar, so these are a nice LOW SUGAR muffin, not sugar free. But otherwise good enough for a now and again treat. - 1/12/09

    I made them using the packets of instant Quaker Low sugar Maple and brown sugar oatmeal, to give them a little bit more flavor. I also added half tsp of cinnamon, and used brown sugar (instead of splenda) the second time and they were better. They were very good this way. - 7/24/08
