I do believe these are the best muffins I've ever made. I added an overripe banana, which was my inspiration for making muffins in the first place, and skipped the extra raisins because my Muelsi already had them.

My goal was to make this recipe as is, but based on what I had on hand, I ended up using this as a base recipe with several substitutions. I only had 1/2 cup applesauce, so I mashed up a banana and a small can of peaches and added them. My muesli already had raisins, so I added 1/2 cup of dried cranberries and 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries. I used brown sugar instead of white sugar and wheat flour instead of all purpose. The end result: delicious! I will be using this recipe again, with or without substitutions.

So good. I used more applesauce instead of oil, only half cup of sugar, used Kellogg's cereal and added raisins, and it was fabulous. Great recipe!!! Very yummy and moist.

nom, nom, nom. My two teenage boys can not get enough of these; I've been making them for more than a year now and they're still requesting them constantly. I pack them in their lunches instead of sandwiches sometimes. I have altered the recipe: I use 1 cup all purpose flour, 1/4 cup wheat flour and 3 Tablespoons ground flax seed and 1 Tablespoon wheat germ. The museli I use has nuts and dried fruit in it, but I still add more dried cherries or blueberries. The boys know they're healthy for them and still they consume mass quantities. Thanks for posting this! It's a family favorite.

These muffins were GREAT! I used more applesauce than called for, and just a tiny bit of oil instead of the 1/3 cup. They came out moist and yummy! I'll definitely make these again!

I loved the taste and texture of these muffins. I did replace the water with a half cup of gingerbread tea since the only spice I had was cinnamon. I loved it so much with the tea, that the second time I made them I added Sugar Plum spice tea instead of the half cup of water. I had a generic granola/flake cereal. I added cranberries and rasins one time, and also loved that. I did replace the white sugar with the brown, and sprinkled extra brown sugar on top before baking. Thank you for the recipe.

Very moist & delicious! I didn't add extra raisins because they were already in my Muesli.

Delicious!!...I read the reviews and decided to cut out most of the oil and replace it with applesauce, leave out the water and because my muesli has a lot of fruit in it, I only used 1/2 cup of raisins. Because my mind goes straight to brown sugar when I think apples and cinnamon, I devided the sugar and used half brown and half white. They are lovely and moist, and will make these again.

Very very good. I made a few changes to the recipe. First of all instead of the 1/3 cup of oil I added an additional 1/3 cup of applesauce, and I didn't use the 1/2 cup of water because it would have made the batter to liquid. I used 1/2 tsp. of nutmeg because I didn't have any allspice at the moment. For the muesli I used my own homemade granola. My family loved them! The muffins were very moist and flavorful; 5 stars~thanks Kiki!
