I thought the muffin mix was a bit too thick so I added about 2 tbsp. of maple syrup and about 1/2 cup more of milk. I also used organic soy milk and added about 1/4 cup of raspberries that I had. I used grab apples off of our tree too and the kids loved them! :)

Muffins are pretty good. I was using a fresh red Gravensteen picked from my tree and they're a bit tart so I took some of the other's advice and upped the sugar to half a cup. These will be perfect for breakfast. As others have said this would be a good recipe to build on and add other fruits and nuts to jazz it up a bit.

My son loves these. He eats them every day when I make them. He has a very picky diet, due to autism, and he loves these. I have eaten them also and like them a lot too!

Good, not great. I took the advice of other reviewers, but it was still too dense and not nearly sweet enough even with twice the recommended amount of sugar. Perhaps some brown sugar might have helped. Still, can't say they weren't good.

It's actually a great recipe if you don't mind playing around with ingredients! I added 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and threw in a leftover package of Quaker oats (maple flavour). I also put less salt (1/4 teaspoon), and a bit more cinnamon. I also made sure to mix the dry and wet ingredients separately first.

I didn't read the other reviews until after I made them. I agree they are not very flavorful. It would have been helpful to know that this a diabetic recipe. Someone mentioned this in their review rating. Understanding that, they are not bad.

I doubled the recipe and used half whole wheat flour and half regular flour. I only used 1/3 cup sugar and used 1/2 cup oil instead of butter. They turned out really well. They weren't super sweet just as the recipe said but they were just sweet enough.

Almost perfect for those of us trying to cut down on sugar - will try it next time with a 1/4 tsp salt this time vs. 1/2 tsp because it was a tad salty.

Very good muffins! I made mine into mini muffins and our whole family ate them for breakfast! They are the perfect flavor and not too sweet. I will definitely make them again.

Yummy! I thought it was just enough sugar. I used the yellow apples and added more cinnamon. Great recipe. Thanks.

I made these for my godfather who is a diabetic, and based on these reviews I wanted to make it sweeter. I changed the milk to a can of apple juice concentrate, added 1/2 cup of raisins to the dry ingredients, 1/2 tsp of ginger and two packets of sugar substitute. I mashed a banana into the wet as well and they are pretty delicious-thanks for the recipe ideas! p.s. I totally agree with the pp, you have to almost leave muffins not quite blended, so they rise and aren't tough.

After reading other reviews I decided to change a few things with this recipe. I used whole wheat flour, added 4 packets of splenda (in addition to the 1/4 cup sugar) doubled the cinnamon, added 1/4 tsp ground cloves, added 1/4 tsp baking soda, used oil instead of butter, added 1/2 cup extra apple and some lemon zest. They turned out great with my changes; fluffy with good taste.

came out well, but I found them quite plain, could use some more fruit or something to give more flavour.

Very very bland. These need more sugar. I also used 1.5 cups of apple rather than 1 and it wasn't too much.

I tried this recipe yesterday, and it went over pretty well. The apples are really sweet and is the dominant flavor. I really think next time I make these I will add more Cinnamon to the mixture.
