I thought these were great, with all the dried fruit who misses the sugar!

Yes... these were excellent. Moist, tasty, and easy to make. I like the idea of substituting applesauce for part of the butter, and will cook down an apple and try that next time.

Just an FYI...these are NOT sugarless. They should be labeled as "No sugar added" or something along those lines. The dates, raisins, and prunes are actually incredibly high in sugars. Natural sugars are better for you, but this recipe would not necessarily be good for someone who needs to, or wishes to, strictly limit sugars in his/her diet.

These muffins were very good. I did alter them a bit as I added flax seed and sesame seeds, and I did not add prunes as I did not have any. I was wondering if a person could exchange the butter for apple sauce? I have used applesauce instead of oil and this had worked out fine. This way these muffins could be sugarless and low fat. If not I will still make them again. Thanks

These are so good, and nutritious. Wonderful for diabetics. I have looked everywhere for this recipe, and finely! A cook at our hospital used to make these - 20 years ago. This recipe is the same. She used to make them brownie fashion, in a 9 X13 pan. They were great that way. I took one reviewers suggestion, and used part wheat flour and flax, used 1/2 unsweetened applesauce and 1/2 butter, and increased the baking powder to 1 tsp. They were perfect, and keep nicely.

I thought these muffins were delicious! I used whole wheat instead of white flour. I only rated them 4 stars b/c of the high fat content. That is disappointing from a healthy muffins (27% of your daily dose of saturated fat in one muffin!). I also thought the buttery taste was quite strong. Next time I will substitute with some apple sauce and I think it will become a 5 stars.

These were great! I didn't have rasins so I just added more dates and prunes. I didn't have nuts so I added frozen chocolate chips. They are favorites!

This was an awesome recipe. I've given up processed sugars so I've been trying recipes sweetened with fruit. The first time I made this, I didn't make any modifications and it was superb. The second time, I added 1/2 cup of cocoa and baked as a cake since I haven't found an adequate fruit-sweetend chocolate cake recipe. I also blended the fruit and water until it was a thick paste so that I didn't have bits of fruit all through the cake. It was pretty good right out of the oven but after sitting for a day, it tasted even more chocolatey and awesome. Thanks for the recipe!

Awesome recipe. I am forever cutting the sugar down in recipes. I used 3/4 cups spelt flour and 1/4 cup white flour as the only change. This will be fun to play with, maybe some bran, wheat germ or flax seed ground up??

I halved the recipe & got 4 jumbo sized muffins. These are good, but I miss the sugar. I would make these again but would add a strusel topping to them.

In a word . . . YUM! I made these for my toddler twins and ended up eating as much as they did. (They loved them too.) I didn't have prunes so I used dried cranberries instead. I also substituted a mix of wheat germ and ground flaxseed for 1/4 cup of flour to add a bit more nutrition (and a full teaspoon of baking powder to deal with the heavier flour mix). We loved them and will definitely be making them regularly.

I made these muffins to "disguise" prunes for a friend during a long recouperation. Although I figured out I should add the water to the fruit before cooking, maybe it should be a bit clearer about that. I mixed together a topping of chopped nuts, brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkled a little on before baking (which I do with a lot of muffins and bread). They are very tasty and light! Thanks for sharing. EV
