Muffins are not sweet enough to balance out the tartness of the cranberries. Will not make again.

These are soooo good! I used 1 1/4 cup applesauce and 1/4 cup oil. I also substituted half of the flour with whole wheat flour. Yum! The kids loved them too!

Good recipe. I added 1 T. of vanilla and next time, I'll toss the cranberries in 2 T. of sugar before adding them... They were a little tart for our taste!

Excellent muffins. I made a few modifications for my taste. I used one cup whole wheat flour and one cup of quick cooking oatmeal instead of white flour. I used 1/4 cup sugar and 1/4 cup splenda. I used walnuts rather than pecans and added approximately 1 tsp of fresh lemon zest. I also topped with a sprinkle of quick cooking oatmeal prior to baking. Baked for 25 min. Came out perfect and very tasty. Thanks for the base recipe.

These are awesome yummy! I took some other reviewers advise: Added 1 t. orange flavoring; Added a bit more oil; Brushed with butter and dipped in raw sugar after baking. Very good, and I doubled the recipe.

These were pretty good. I was pleased with the texture of muffins made with more applesauce than oil, since applesauce usually changes the texture to more spongy. I don't usually go more than 50/50 applesauce/oil (or butter), when trying to lower fat in recipes, but this recipe was a pleasant surprise in that area. That said, I did feel that the cranberries (fresh) tartness was very strong for this muffin, so I would suggest (& I'll try this next time I make them) is either using dried, or tossing your fresh berries w/ a bit of stevia/sugar/whatever sweetener you use, and letting that sit while you prep the rest of the batter. That should bring out the sweetness a bit more. I also think next time I'd add and extract (like orange/vanilla). I also used part white whole wheat flour in this recipe with no problems in texture/taste.

These are fantastic. Unfortunatly I cant find either fresh or frozen cranberries at this time of year so I used a frozen mixed berry mix with raspberries, blueberries, strawberries and blackberries. I used half light brown sugar and half with. All I had was cinnamon applesauce so I just used it instead of plain and I did keep the added cinnamon in the batch because in my house we love cinnamon. These were dense which I know is from the applesause but very good. I cant wait to try them with fresh cranberries.

I used blueberries and cranberries - mostly whole wheat flour and a bit extra baking soda. They are great but missing something - maybe I added too much whole wheat flour - so I dipped the cooled muffins into lemon juice and then into sugar....now they are marvelously sweet and perfect.

WOW. These muffins are great! I used Craisins and Walnuts as substitutes (didn't have fresh cranberries or pecans) and they were still SO good. We'll definitely make them again the same way.

Great recipe! I had to add a some milk and extra oil because my batter turned out a little thick. Possibly because I used homemade applesauce that didn't have enough liquid to it. I also used dried cranberries instead of fresh/frozen. I think they had the perfect amount of sweetness. If you have a sweet tooth you could add icing to the top, but I had mine with butter and they were delicious!

These came out perfect for me. Very delicious. I followed the advice of others and used 1 1/4 c. applesauce but used the full 1/3 c. oil. I also added 1/2 c. finely chopped dried cranberries instead of fresh. (Since I don't care for the texture of nuts in my muffins but like the flavor of the nuts I also added 1/4 very finely ground walnuts.)

These are delicious! I used 1/2 cup dried cranberries since they are not in season right now. I also followed suit of other reviewers and used 1 1/4 cup applesauce, 1/4 cup oil (I used olive) and 1 1/2 tsp baking soda. I made them mini muffins and they were great!

I love these muffins, I make 'em all winter...here's a tip to make things go faster....I use 2 cups of Jiffy baking mix, and omit the salt and baking soda. Use dried cranberries, you can always have them on hand, add a teaspoon or so of veg. oil for moistness.
