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.

Very good. Came out moist but yes it was a little bland. However I anticpated that so I used 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1/2 nutmeg. Net time I will add more sugar.

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.

Not very good at all. 1/4 cup sugar was not enough; very bland

We found these to be very dull. Tried glazing them with sugar and water glaze, added cinnamon, it was a no hoper.

This was pretty good; I added 1/2 tsp of allspice and 1/4c of raisins. Next time I will add more apple and cinnamon. Still, this was a nice little muffin.

Pretty good and easy muffins. Next time I will add more cinnamon and apples. Nuts would also be a yummy addition.

Very easy and fast to make. I added more apples. It turned out great, not too sweet, which was what I wanted. Will definately bake more of this.

Very rubbery and dull tasting. Did not over mix, have done muffins before NOT to over blend. Kids did not like it, and neither did anyone else. Had to throw them all out, too chewy and rubbery to eat and not enough sweet taste to it.

Easy recipe, but a little bland and rubbery. I think it could have more "zing" without adding more sugar. Honestly, I don't think I over mixed the dough to make it rubbery.

I found them dry, bland and rather heavy. Almost like big dry tea biscuits.

I see a lot of people who say this recipe is bland. One reason for that is it is supposed to be a diabetic recipe. So for all the non-diabetics, adding more sugar may improve the flavour. I have also seen some reviews that they were chewy or tough - that means you are over-mixing the batter. Remember- muffin batter is only mixed until just combined. Just some hints I thought may help.

The muffins are good for beginners, I made them for my roomates in residence. But they're lacking a little ZING!! I'm thinking either more apple or more cinnamon...
