I made this for my youth group and everyone loved them! Nothing is too over powering even for a friend who doesn't like pumpkin!

These are a hit! My husband is a muffin addict and very discerning. I only made a dozen (they're a bit small) and by his request a second 2 dozen batch is baking right now. The smell of our home is incredible. I melted margarine because we were out of oil and it worked very well.

Loved these, and so did everyone at my office! Found it a bit tedious cutting up fresh cranberries, but they really tasted phenomenal. Might use Craisins next time, but there will be a next time for these!

Let me start by saying I think I botched these because it was by far the stiffest dough I have made! But it was soooo worth it! We are trying to watch a little so we used Splenda Blend - only 1 cup per other reviewers - and it was delish, enough sweetness to offset the cranberries but not so much that you felt like you were eating a poptart :) We also added about 3/4 cup chopped pecans. I noticed with the Splenda Blend that it took only 15 minutes to bake. Mine were a little ugly (could not smooth them on my life! think it had to be the Splenda Blend???) Ugly or not - we are doing this one again and again - the flavor is really pretty great!

I must have done something wrong so I'm not giving this a lower rating. I couldn't eat these, but my boyfriend did. The only modification I made was to split the sugar, half brown, half white. There was no flavor (other than the tart cranberries), didn't even have a muffin consistency, very dense, stuck to the paper lining, and didn't raise up at all during baking. I won't be trying this again. I'll stick to the cranberry-pumpkin cookies on this site.

Very yummy! I added 1/4 cup of maple syrup and only 1 cup sugar. I used fresh cranberries (I think I'll use more than the 1 cup next time) and pumpkin seeds. I might have overdone it on the spices (cin, nutmeg, allspice, cloves) but they still turned out wonderful!

I wasn't sure what to rate this recipe because I did make a few changes. They were amazing though! I used 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour and 1 cup of whole wheat. I double the spices. (I didn't have pumpkin pie spice but used cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and ginger) I only used 1 cup of white sugar and then added 1/2 cup of brown. I also added 1 tsp of vanilla. After I put the batter in the muffin cups I mixed up a topping of 2 tbls of butter, 2 tbls flour, 1 tsp cinnamon and 1 tbls brown sugar and spooned it on top. I took them to work the next day and everyone raved about them. MMMMMMMMMmmmmm...

These muffins were amazing! Like other reviewers, I made quite a few changes to the recipe, which made them a bit healthier and delicious! I used 1 cup of reg. sugar and 1 cup of brown sugar. Then I replaced the oil with applesauce to make them healthier. Instead of pumpkin spice I used allspice, and I used unchopped fresh cranberries. Finally, I added 1/2-3/4 cup of flaked sweetened coconut (this made them taste so good!) Enjoy!

I cut the sugar in half, (who needs 2 CUPS?) and used apple sauce in the place of the oil. Very delish!

I used 1 cup sugar like the other reviewers suggested. These were pretty good. Interesting combo of flavors for sure. Prob would be real good without the cranberries or with some glaze on top.

I made several modifications to this recipe and what I came up with was good but not great. I used whole wheat flour instead of all purpose, 1 cup packed brown sugar instead of white sugar, 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, a splash of vanilla, 1.25 cups of plain lowfat yogurt instead of oil, 2 cups of frozen cranberries and 1 cup of walnuts. The actual pumpkin muffin part was very moist and flavorful. But I added to many cranberries for my taste and that is what lowered my rating for them. One thing I noticed though is that they tasted better the next day rather than warm from the oven.

I made 2 versions- 1 with the whole amount of sugar (2 cups) and 1 with 1.5 cups sugar, 1/2 cup applesauce. The one with more sugar was better, IMO. I also added 2 Tbsp ground flaxmeal and used 1/2 whole wheat flour in place of white flour (both versions). Yummy muffins, my husband loved them.

the muffins taste fantastic, however the temp seems to be up to high. my muffins were burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. perhaps 350/375 would be better. i will try again tomorrow..too frustrated to clean burnt pans and try again tonight.

Very moist. Light pumpkin flavor, not too heavy with spice. I used dried sweetened cranberries and did not chop them. These turned out pretty sweet and very moist like I stated at the first. I made these for an event at work, and we only sampled 1, but sure wish I'd made a double batch and had some to leave here as well. Excellent muffins, Thanks Sue Ross!!!
