This looks good! Thanks! Half the time I try these darn recipes there's always a few steps and/or ingredients MISSING! Heck, not HALF the time, but MOST of the time!

Nice! What sort of size are they?
#6	ninav	Feb 07 2007 11:12
They are a good size. They don't rise as much as flour based muffins and are very dense and moist.

i'm trying these today - i altered the recipe a little to raise the fiber. i'll let you know how they turned out - but the batter smells fantastic!

these were wonderful in muffin top tins since they are so dense. raised beautifually and just enough to make a nice muffin top. I used the excess batter, altered it a bit and made bars with it too. I loved this recipe.

Oh cool I'm so glad people are playing with the recipe. That's the best part of cooking. You can be creative with things.

I added a variation of this recipe that calls for adding a cube of fat free cream cheese to the center of the muffin before baking. You can see that here: http://www.calorie-count.com/recipe/25244.html Also here is a variation of the recipe with blueberries here: http://www.calorie-count.com/recipe/24429.html

Wow, we have some creative cooker's on CC. Those all look fantastic. I like the one with the cream cheese. Thanks

Ooooh, Thank you Ninav! I'm trying the blueberry version this weekend! YEAY!

Cream cheese! I bet that's good. I have a block of cream cheese in the freezer that needs to be thawed and used before too long.
