    1 Medium Apple, Chopped
    1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
    2 egg whites

    I made them and they were easy9Just remember to soak your oatmeal 1 hr ahead) and they were a delicious desert for me. My husband even ate them and took extra for his lunch. - 12/5/09

    My family loves these. I substituted the sugar for 2 tbsp. of honey (1 would have been sufficient). I chopped a small bag of raisins because I made mini-muffins and the kids like it when they don't know they are raisins. I like to add a little orange or lemon zest, also. - 2/12/15

    DD: Mom they didn't rise.
    ME: Did you add the baking powder or soda?
    DD: Yup
    ME: Wow! Something's not right.
    DD: I followed the recipe to a T mom. But the batter was really soupy.
    ME: Did you add the flour?
    DD: (pause) flour??? There's flour?
    ME: *sigh* she's 21

    Remade them with flour. Yum

    i altered the recipe just a smidgen.... if you don't have time to soak the oatmeal, it's cool, microwave them. Just for about a minute and a half, make them soft. I also made it with unsweetened almond milk. 35 cal a cup!! i also switcheed the applesauce for a banana and added pecans! delicious! - 2/18/12

    I have made a substitution for the Splenda to an equal amount of Agave syrup which I mixed into the wet ingredients. The flour, which is listed as a wet ingredient, I mixed into the dry grouping instead. It smells heavenly baking. They are moist and tasty, and I will make them again. - 5/13/10

    I thought they were quite good. They are very easy to make. I have to say my parents probably liked them more than I did. I am making more for them. I'll also continue to make more for myself. I believe they will make a good quick breakfast. - 10/24/09

    These came out very moist. I only had golden delicious apples so the apple favor was mild. Next time I will try a stronger variety of apple. - 9/16/09

    These were great! I didn't have cinnimin so used a dash of ground cloves instead. I made these as Mini muffins and baked them for 15-20 mins. Family LOVED them as did my office. I will make these again! - 3/5/09

    What i like about these muffins, is there is NO sugar in the recipe--but the small amount on top which gives it all the flavour you need! Excellent! - 1/5/09

    Loved this recipe, made it with honey instead of sugar substitute, (it gives me headaches), was short on milk and used some fat free vanilla yogurt (ended up being half and half) turned out great. My family ate them all in one day... My one year old even liked them. Thanks! - 7/26/08
