This is a good quick bread! I was looking for a quick bread that was hearty, healthy, and not decidedly sweet like a pumpkin or zucchini bread. This fit the bill really well. I doubled all the ingredients, used apple butter instead of the oil, and used 1 1/2 cups of skim milk and 1/2 c light sour cream. At the end, I tasted the batter and felt that it wasn't sweet enough to balance out all the baking powder, etc, so I added another few tablespoons of apple butter and it was great. I will make this again!

These muffins were great. I followed the reviews and did half whole wheat flour, cut the sugar in half, and substituted applesauce for the oil. I also added a little extra apple, like maybe a half cup. You did not miss the oil or the sugar. I made one batch with the struesel topping as written and then for the next batch I just sprinked some cinnamon and raw sugar on top and it was fine. So fat free muffins! (basically. :)) These will be my go-to recipe for healthy, moist, and yummy muffins.

You must try these brownies. I rarely make a recipe more than once in a short period of time and I've made these twice in the past week, they're so good. And here are a couple of changes I made to make them healthier: I substituted 1/2 c of Fat Free Greek Yogurt (Vanilla flavored) for 1/2 c of butter. I added the yogurt after I mixed the remaining 1/2 c of butter with the sugars and the vanilla to get the right texture first. I used 1.5 cups of white sugar and 1 c of brown sugar (so 1/2 c less than the recipe calls for) And beyond that - I followed the recipe and made sure to not over bake. THEY ARE VERY GOOD - and I'm a homemade-brownie critic. These will be chocolatey and fudgey and with the adjustments, healthier indulgences that don't taste like reduced fat! Enjoy!
