Excellent-- the whole wheat floue couldn't be detected at all. Definitely make without papers. I used chocolate chips instead of raisins-- just what I had on hand.

I absolutely loved the flavor of these muffins. The honey nutmeg combo is great. I felt it was missing one thing...Some chopped walnuts would have made a world of difference. It really would have improved the texture (which is different than a typical muffin). Had no problems with muffins sticking. Mixed equal parts flour, oil, and shortening to lightly grease the tins. They popped right out, but probably didn't help with the calories. Also they were extremely moist.

I intended to make these exactly as the recipe, but I only had one egg and only whole wheat flour. The missing egg made them slightly more dense, which was actually really good. This is a great fat free recipe that I highly recommend to anyone looking for a healthy and not-too-sweet muffin. I'm also going to try the chocolate chip variation too.

The flavor of this muffin is good, but the texture is very dense, heavy and borderline dry. That's not surprising since the recipe has zero oil/butter etc. To me, this recipe isn't good enough to make again - unless I substitute some of the applesauce with oil or butter. Also, the muffins stick to the paper (again since there is no grease in the recipe) - about 1/4 of the muffin stays with the paper liner. I would think that it would wreak havoc on an unlined muffin pan - unless the pan is very well greased. Won't be adding this to my rotation of muffin recipes.

These are delicious! I used homemade applesauce and all whole-wheat flour and they are superb. I'll be making them again for sure. I always have leftover bananas.

This is a great healthy muffin for the family, moist and lightly sweet. I used agave nectar instead of honey, omitted raisins (because I didn't have any) also added 1 tsp of cinnamon and 1-2 tsp of vanilla to enhance the flavor. Once they cool down, they pair well with your morning coffee!

I have been making these muffins for a long time now and figured it was time to give thanks. I make them as recipe states and they are perfect everytime. My family loves these muffins and asks for them often. Thanks for posting it!

I didn't have applesauce on hand so I added a little vegetable oil instead. Pretty good muffins and reasonably healthful (would have been more so if I had had the applesauce on hand!). I will do this recipe again.

My daughter and I love these muffins. I usually use regular raisins, since that is what I seem to have on hand. Moist, delicious and so nutritious!

Pretty good for a fat free recipe. It does have that odd texture that I always get in an attempt to make muffins fat free, but they still have good flavor. The best fat free I have had.

These taste just as good as muffins with butter or oil. I didn't have nutmeg so I used cinnamon instead. Also, I added about a tsp of butter extract. Not sure if it made a difference or not. These are super moist and I can't stop eating them! I wasn't looking for a healthy recipe necissarily, but what a bonus that they are good for you!

I didn't like this muffin at all. The texture was weird, they stuck to the muffin cups, and the nutmeg gave it a strange taste. Unfortunately I had made them for breakfast for weekend company. Everybody was polite, but at the end, all of the blueberry muffins were gone and most of the honey banana were left. I won't make them again.

These are a great lower-fat muffin. They definitely have that low-fat texture (you know the one I mean... A little spongy), but they are great tasting and well worth the compromise for fewer calories and less fat!

FANTASTIC.... I didn't have any unsweetened applesauce, so I used the regular kind and cut back the honey by 2 TBSP. I also used half nutmeg and half cinnamon and added 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips. You will love these muffins!

Excellent! Great taste and very moist especially for a muffin recipe with no added oil. I used chocolate chips instead of raisins but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. Just one tip - don't use muffin liners for this recipe...they stick and take half the muffin with them.

I made these for breakfast this morning and they were delicious. I loved that they were just sweetened with honey. The only thing I did differently was use all wheat flour and walnuts instead of raisens. After they came out of the oven we put butter on them yuuummmm!!!
