love 'em!
These are delicious! Now provided I'm very used to eating whole wheat products, skim milk, and more natural foods but even my fiance loved them. I used all whole wheat flour, canola oil instead of vegetable, 1/4 cup of egg product instead of egg white, and added some vanilla and cinnamon (per other reader's suggestion). YUMMY!

Banana Oat Muffin
I agree with the last post, they are very wet/dense. Also I didn't think they had much flavor. The addition of cinnamon and vanilla in the batter would help. Also they only need to be cooked for 15 minutes. They will brown too much if left in the oven longer.

yum!
I really like this recipe! I tweaked it a bit using whole wheat flour and I also added walnuts. They turned out great and are really good!

These muffins had good flavor, but they were a little too wet/dense. I put half raisins and half chocolate chips (not as healthy!) and my daughter really liked them.
