These are good, not great, but good. I modified them to make them super healthy (Splenda instead of sugar, applesauce for oil, wheat flour, wheat germ, egg whites, skipped the cream cheese) and I added some extra spice (more cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove) to flavor. They came out a little tough and dry, so I think next time some nonfat, light vanilla yogurt is in order. But, for healthy muffins, these are pretty tasty.

Delicious. Modified with pureed ingredients for my toddler who will sometimes refuse anything with color. Also followed other reviews suggestion to cut back on sugar and replace oil with applesauce. Very dark muffins that looks like they would be tough, but they were delicious!!

These muffins were very moist and light! 4 stars because I felt that they were a little bland and needed more spice. Following other reviewers' advice, I used 3/4c unsweetened apple sauce and 1/4c vegetable oil, and reduced brown and white sugars to 1/2c. I also plumped the raisins (boil in water for a few minutes), used whole wheat flour, and added more cinnamon, nutmeg, ground ginger, and cloves to give it a spicier taste. I also used a combination of whipped and flavored cream cheese for a quick cream cheese filling. Tasty! Will make again!

Great recipe! Don't overfill muffin tins (stick to 2/3 full), as they do not "puff" on top, and the collapsed tops aren't as attractive. Delicious, relatively healthy as muffins go, and freezes well- just reheat in microwave 35 seconds on 50% power. Thanks, Shonan!

Love these muffins! I also used 3/4 applesauce and 1/4 oil, instead of 1c oil, and the muffins were the perfect moistness and sweetness. I did use a bit less sugar though (about 1/2 cup of each sugar), I used sweetened applesauce so I wasn't sure how it would affect the sweetness. Made some with the cream cheese middle, didn't think it added that much but it tasted fine. I might not have used enough of the filling to make it noticeable enough. The filling did not seem to affect the texture or consistency of the muffin.

These were wonderful. I used other reviewers' suggestions, and reduced both sugars and used applesauce instead of oil and they were superb. Also omitted the cream cheese center but might try it sometime. The 2nd time I made these, I forgot I didn't have any pineapple and just added more carrots, raisins, and coconut. I keep getting asked for the recipe! And, my Dad (who NEVER likes "sweets" like this) wanted these as his 60th birthday treat. What a wonderful compliment! Thank you!

These were very good. I even added 1/2 c. of chocolate chips to offset all those fruits and veggies. Have to have something chocolate in there :) They are maybe a little greasy, so I'll do the 1/2 applesauce next time. Skipped the cream cheese. Very yummy. Will make again. Wish they would dome up a bit more as they are flat tops. Make sure you grease the top part of the muffin tin.

Ohh Soo Good! I even cut back some of the juice that went in the cream cheese mixture to keep it thick, and put even bigger globs in the center of the muffins - and it stayed as a creamy cheese center! They didn't even last a day between my husband and I!

These are delicious and I will make them again, soon, but will leave out most of the oil as they were too "greasy" for our tastes. I added about 1/4 cup of flaxseed meal for part of the all-purpose flour--great tasting!

This recipe was very flavorful but I wish I had listened to the other reviewers and omitted the cream cheese filling. Definitely a good way to get fruits and veggies into the kids.

These are so great. I left out the cream cheese middle, and use applesauce in place of oil. I make them in jumbo muffin cups, so they make a real (ie. big) mid-morning snack for my boyfriend. Yummy.

This is one of the best muffin recipes that I have tried. The wonderful smell during the baking time was extraordinary. I added nutmeg and cloves along with the cinnamon. Also I whipped the cream cheese and pineapple juice, instead of lightly mixing... created a softer center that almost swirled though the middle of the muffin. But I think it would be good either way, with a firmer center or with a fluffy center. Think I might try shredded zucchini instead of carrots next time. Can see that you could vary this recipe dozens of different ways. The canola oil does give it a slicker texture; might alter that next time and use butter. But still very good. Will definitely make this recipe again.

We loved this recipe. Very moist and delicious. I did not have wheat flour so I used all-purpose instead. I also cut back the sugar a bit and did not do the filling...and they turned out great. I have already made them twice.

What a great recipe! I cut both sugars to a 1/2 cup each, substituted 3/4 cup apple sauce + 1/4 cup oil for the 1 cup oil recommended. They aren't oily at all this way! I have doubled and quadrupled the recipe so I could put a couple dozen muffins in the freezer before and since my son was born. They freeze great! The muffins I've kept out have been moist and delicious. Everyone asks for this recipe. Enjoy!

I left out the cream cheese filling and halved the sugar. If I were to make them for guests, though, I would probably only cut the sugar by 1/4. My only complaint is that these were a little greasy, so next time I will cut back on the oil.

I have a son with food allergies so I made these with Ener-G egg replacer and no cream cheese filling. They turned out great but are a little oily. My son & husband love them, though, and that was my main goal. I feel so good about the little one getting all these fruits & veggies in a muffin! Thank you.
