Really Good! I left out the white sugar and they are still really sweet. I also left out oil and added 1/4 cup more pumpkin. Great results, my PICKY 5 year old loved them. Will surely make again!

These were a little too dense for me. I might try spelt flour next time since I have had better success with it. I used a fresh roasted pumpkin instead of canned and cut out the white sugar which was fine for me and the kids but the hubby didn't like them at all.

I've been wanting to make pumpkin muffins for over a week now and I finally decided on these because they are healthier than all the ones I've been eyeing, my conscience was reminding me Thanksgiving is two days away. These were great and I will definitely make these again! Instead of the raisins I added Craisins.

Delicious muffins. I took the advice of other reviewers and left out the white sugar. They would have been too sweet with it. I used cranberries instead of the raisins and pecans. They complemented the pumpkin very well.

Great recipe! I used only half the recommended oil and applesauce for the other half. Also, used the buttermilk substitute. This makes better mini-loaves than muffins. I couldn't get them to cook evely as muffins, but the mini-loaves turned out very nicely.

I love these muffins... the only thing that i do differently is substitute mashed banana for the applesauce. Also, make sure you put them in a sealed container as soon as they come out of the oven so they retain their moisture. Sooo good!
