These are great muffins. I used cinnamon apple sauce instead of oil and even my kids liked them.

Excellent base recipe. I ended up making a few changes like others. Instead 1c veg oil, I used 3/4c unsweetened applesauce and 1/4c veg oil. I used half white flour and half wheat flour and 3tsp of cinnamon. I didn't have an apple or coconut so left them out. Next time I want to try with an apple and coconut and will double the recipe and try freezing some for later. My 3&5 yr olds each ate 2 after lunch. They said they were the best ever!!!

These tasted really good, but they didn't rise up for me. The just stayed flat. They were really moist and delicious, so I will certainly make them again.

Great Recipe!!!! Second time I have made them in a week! I used 3/4 cup apple sauce and 1/4 veg oil. Also, I added 1 shredded zucchini to the mix, and place raw pumpkin seeds on the tops for a bit of crunch!!!

These will make you feel good inside. Some changes / suggestions I made: use 1/2 whole wheat flour, use 1/2 C brown sugar (total), use shredded sweet potato instead of carrots, use craisins instead of raisins, dice the apple (green), sub apple sauce for olive oil. A double batch made 44 muffins for me.

FINALLY - the perfect muffin recipe! I did reduce sugar to 3/4 cup b/c over a cup seems too much, and they were perfectly sweet. I will attempt applesauce next time as other reviewers have noted, the oil did make them sort of greasy, but very moist!

great base recipe that makes it easy to use any sort of fruit or veggies you have on hand (mix 'n match zucchini, carrots, apples, rhubarb, dried cranberries, raisins, cherries, etc). chopping takes a bit of time, but it's worth it. applesauce easily takes the place of all the oil as suggested. it's also easy to sneak in some extra healthfulness with some ground flax seed, etc.

Truly delicious. Only gave it 4 stars because they did not rise. Muffins were flat. Other recipes rise nicely. Made several batches with same results.

I make these about once a month. I often host a morning meeting with some of my friends every Wednesday morning. I generally try to bake something new each time. These muffins have been by far the best recipe I have tried and the ladies request them every week! I always make these with half whole wheat flour and half white. I also omit the nuts (I'm not a huge nut fan!) I also make the batter the night before and then throw them in the oven the next morning. You definitely have to try these!

We love these muffins! I usually throw whatever extra fruits I have on hand in the blender -- bananas, a couple of apples, carrots, zucchini, etc., and puree till smooth, since we aren't big on "shreds" of stuff in our muffins. I up the spices and dry ingredients till my batter is "muffin-y texture." I sub some whole wheat flour, and do about 1/2 applesauce 1/2 oil to cut down on the fat, but still keep them moist and tasty! This makes TONS of muffins for me -- I put some in the freezer and the rest in the fridge for hubby to grab for a quick breakfast on his way to work. Thanks a bunch! These are versatile and easy to make to taste!

Great recipe to follow exactly or make you own! I omitted the oil and replaced with applesauce, and used whole wheat flour. I also added 1C zucinni and 1C carrots instead of 2C carrots. Great way to get more veggies in my toddler--she LOVES them1

UPDATE:I love these but they're not easy to just "whip up". For a brunch I was having, I measured all the dry ingredients a couple days ahead, put the nuts, raisins & coconut in little baggies and grated the carrot the night before. In the morning all I had to do was mix the wet ingredients and grate the apple. It was worth the planning. FIRST REVIEW:I was really dubious making these! There seemed like so much to do and the batter didn't seem that "batter-y". HOWEVER, they were wonderful! Very moist and flavorful. I used (preference & what I had) pecans, craisins & sweetened coconut (backed off on sugar as one reviewer suggested). I have never sub-ed applesauce for oil before but I did half/half as some suggested. I served them Easter morning with the Amish Breakfast Casserole and fresh fruit. Lots of compliments. This is a keeper.

these were tasty and easy except for the grating part. they were a bit oily. i should have taken other reviewers advice and used applesauce in place of the oil. i would also use a tad bit less carrot.

I also used whole wheat flower and cranberries instead of walnuts. I wish I had of had apple sauce because they would be better without so much oil. However, very yummy!!! Will definitly make again!

These were great muffins. The things I did differently were using 1/2 cup oil and added 1 jar of apple blueberry (baby food. I did not have flaked coconuts available so I added chopped dried mangoes. Also added 2 tablespoons of plain yoghurt. So moist and very yummy. Made 12 muffins and small 1 pan.
