These muffins are rich and moist, but have no oil or butter in them. The recipe multiplies well and the muffins are easy to freeze. 10 or 15 seconds in the microwave is generally enough to thaw them, or if you have enough time, just leave them on the counter for a bit.

Using foil muffin cups allows you to make large batches on cookie sheets, but be sure to remove the muffins from the cookie sheet to cool so the bottoms don’t burn! See less

Love that these are virtually fat free (except for the eggs!). I reduced the suagr to 1/2c and added 1/4c wheat bran for fiber. Also added 1/2c choc chips - everyone loved them! The kids thought they were dessert! (:

Added 1/2 tsp of vanilla and 3/4 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips. These are simple, easy, and tasty! I love how they have no butter/margarine.

These were so good and easy to make! I added a splash of vanilla substituted 1 cup of flour for 1 cup of oatmeal flakes, for a little more texture and bulk. I also threw in a handful of chocolate chips. Very good although I think I will omit the choc...more
