I must not have been paying close attention to the recipe when I made these, because I mixed all of the brown sugar and nuts into the batter and left none for topping. I also forgot to put an egg in. So my muffins were eggless and had no topping, but they still tasted very good. The oatmeal makes them a hearty, filling, breakfast.

Not bad; they're not too sweet. It may have just been my oven but I baked mine at 400 degrees and they were done in 17 minutes.

Hands down the best base recipe for an Oatmeal muffin. I needed help with the consistancy of my personal creations and refered to this recipe for help. I left out the "extras" and added my own...thank you so much for a Fabulous Recipe!!!!

Just a tad dry for my taste, but the flavor was great, they were easy to make, and I easily had all the ingredients in my kitchen. My 2 year old was able to help.

Quite a gut-bomb, which is what I was looking for. I added applesauce, hoping it would moisten them a bit, but it was still too dry for my taste.

These just came out of the oven, and they are fantastic! I always read through the reviews, sorted by most helpful, and here are the changes that did. I used half regular and half whole wheat flour, egg beaters instead of egg, used only 2 Tbsp oil, and used applesauce to make 1/2 cup, used miniature chocolate chips, added a splash of vanilla,and just used 2 TBSP pecans in the muffins, and 2 TBSP for the topping, that's just personal preference. I try to substitute applesauce for oil in some baked goods, and this is by far the best results!

Mmmmm....yum! I really like these but I also love chocolate chip pancakes. I'd probably eat anything with chocolate chips and if I can get them in my breakfast what could be better?

Yum, Yum, Yum! These are wonderful muffins, excellent tast and texture. I subbed 1/2 cup of wholewheat flour and used raisins instead of pecans. I don't normally use veg oil in my baking and I only had a couple of spoonfuls of apple sauce left so I used that and added a pureed ripe banana. The recipe states it will make 12 muffins and I managed 21. Plenty for the freezer now.

I used applesauce instead of oil for a moist muffin. Instead of chocolate chips i cut up chunks of cadbury dark chocolate and of course i mixed in SKOR toffee bits into the "streusal" topping. DELICIOUS!

This is a great recipe for novice bakers like myself. They came out really delicious. I'm looking forward to trying everyone's suggestions on how to make them differently.

Very tasty muffins. I left out the nuts and added a little vanilla, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. They did not rise quite as much as I was expecting, and I was left with smaller muffins than I was hoping for. Next time I will fill the muffin pan more.

definitely the best chocolate chip muffins i've ever made. i was surprised how moist this recipe turned out. i followed the recipe exactly, except i omitted the pecans and i used mini chocolate chips. i also followed the advice of other reviewers and added 1 tsp of vanilla. it was YUMMY! next time i might add a pinch of cinnamon, but other than that.. perfect :)

This recipe is great and very easy. Since the oatmeal and milk have to set for 15 minutes, I use that time to finish some other kitchen duties, like empty the dishwasher, etc. I eliminated the pecans when I made it as we just don't care for nuts in our muffins. They are very filling, and often requested by my family. It's a new family staple recipe now.
