    Pumpkin Struessel Muffins

    Made these this morning. Its a wonderful recipe. I've attached a couple of photos showing pre and post bake. Don't know why but it posted one twice I'm sure you can fix that.

    The batter was very good and your baking time spot on. I made only a few deviations which was to add 1/2cup sugar to the pumpkin mix because I like a sweet muffin. I used 1/2 cup of flax seed meal instead of that 1/2 flour to get some more fiber into our diet and a bit of ground walnut to the streussel topping. I don't think these changes are too far off the path and change your intention. I hope you agree.

    The mix does in fact make 18 muffins but I chose to make 12 then a mini loaf. I've been in a muffin making phase this past month or so and am freezing the mini-loafs for small Christmas tokens for folks a the office.

    OOOOH I love your suggestions for adding fiber. I just have to add these. WE love muffins to grab and go in the morning. Kid will love these. Her postassium level is low and she hates bananas (unless flambeed with sugar and rum) This will be a good alternative to the banana nut muffin she is sooooooo tired of.

    That's funny. This is another filthy trick of mine to get Mr. SuchAFuss to eat something good for him. I discovered he will actually eat a muffin in the morning on his way to work. Stunned me because for years he would eat nothing until lunch. Lately he have been having some sort of sugar problem and needs to have something in the morning or he'll be useless. Muffins have been a help and it also makes his folks happy.
