I used 1/2 c. white and 1/2 c. wheat flour. I added dried cranberries and some honey. I used 1/2 c. brown and white sugar. I used rolled oats instead of quick cooking. I grounded up half of the rolled oats; it gives the muffins a bit of a crunch. I added chocolate chips and cranberries. They turned out great. very tasty!!!

Great starter recipe for me. I add bananas and choc. chips. I usually leave out the oil and it doesn't really need a substitute. I find that where I live (Carribean) the recepy needs an extra 1/2 tsp baking powder. I also poured the batter in a 8x8 inch pan and left it in the oven 5 extra minutes and it made a great cake! Thanks a billion for this recipe!!

Perfect base recipe. Peaked nicely, good texture, nice flavor. Our family has enjoyed this recipe with additional ingredients: cinnamon, raisins, and walnuts.

These were great! I made these with my 7 year old daughter who is wanting to learn how to cook and they lived up to their "easy" name. We upped the sugar to 1/2 cup. We also added 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, a dash of nutmeg and some crushed wal-nuts. We also used half whole wheat flour and substituted (cinnamon) applesauce for the oil. Can't wait to try this with some berries! UPDATE: We still love this recipe! It is so super fast and flexible, we have used every combination of fruits, nuts, and goodies you can imagine and they're always delicious.

Add 1/2 to 1 tsp of nutmeg and lightly toast the oats before you mix them in, it really brings out the flavor of the oats.

great recipe, so simple to make, but taste just wonderful

I added pistachio syrup and coconut syrup to half of them, and cinnamon and vanilla to the other half. These were very good.

Very good. I also made some additions. Substituted whole wheat pastry flour, brown sugar, regular cooking oats and skim milk. Added 1/2 cup of dried cranberries. Also sprinkled about 1 tablespoon of demerara sugar over the entire batch. Very tasty and nice crumb.

i added a little extra sugar and a tiny bit of honey for flavor and they were exceptional. As a vegan i also used soy milk instead of regular milk... and 4 tablespoons potato flour rather than eggs. they turned out beautifully. nice rounded tops and soft true muffin texture. wonderful!

Great base recipe. Like everyone else, I made modifications. I added 2 1/2 tbsps of brown sugar, cinnamon, fresh nutmeg to the dry ingredients. I added 1/4 tsp of vanilla to the wet mixture. I also added raisins to the final mixture. Turned out great!

I used whole wheat flour, brown sugar, walnuts and coconut, just to avoid the white flour,I also added 1 Tablespoon of flax seed powder too, I forgot to add cinnamon, I will the next time, I am not much of a baker and am learning how to change recipes slowly, I just had a muffin now and they are very very good, I am a pill Diabetic and these are low in carbs which is good too, thankyou for this recipe, I will be trying more, thanks again, Fun

I love this muffins! The ingredients are simple and easily on hand. Not too sweet! When I added dried cranberries in it, there's a punch of sweetness. I also added traces of cinnamon powder and instant coffee in it. They taste very good!

This recipe is very good. I replaced milk with vanilla soy milk,and replaced the sugar with honey as suggested by another review. As well, I added 2 overly ripe banana's mashed with about one teaspoon of cinnamon.

This is a very good BASE recipe. As is it is bland.. IMO. I added some maple syrup and a little bit more sugar and also some vanilla. I would have added some cinnamon but dont have any. I think with some carrot or apple this would be fantastic. The muffins came out moist on the inside but nice and crisp on the outside. very easy to make.. thanks for sharing.

A good base recipe. I substituted brown sugar for white, applesauce for oil. Also added a little maple syrup and almond extract, and tossed in some dark chocolate chips in half the batch. Good stuff!

My 3 1/2 year old nephew asked me upon taking his first bite of the muffin, "What did you put in these muffins to make them so delicious?" Very good with 1 tsp of cinnamon.

Great basic recipe! I make it even more tasty by adding in blueberries to the mix (a cup or two) and last night I added some dark chocolate chips just for fun - DELICIOUS! :)

This made good mini muffins. I substituted applesauce for half the oil, and whole wheat flour for half the flour. For the mini muffins, I baked them for about 10-12 minutes...otherwise they would burn.

I like these muffins made as the recipe is written, and I also like them when I make them healthier by using whole wheat four and substituting applesauce for oil.

Well, these were definitely as the name suggests, easy! I made the following changes: Kept the amount of sugar, but used half white and half brown. I also made my own applesauce (boiled down apples with a bit of water and added vanilla & cinnamon) and used it in equal amount to replace the oil completely. I added coconut (didn't measure, maybe 1/4 cup) to the mixture. When I got it all mixed up, I took half and added some milk chocolate chips. The other half had dried cranberries added to it and a few dashes of nutmeg. Overall, I think it could use more sugar. I think they'd be rather bland without my addition of sweetened coconut and chocolate chips. They're pretty good for oatmeal though. Also, I didn't find that mine made 12 decent sized muffins. I'm not sure why as with the fruit/chocolate/coconut additions I had more volume there...Anyways, I'd say it would make 6-8 large muffins. I made 12, but they barely puffed up.
