I loved these. The only change I made was to leave the cranberries whole, as they were frozen solid.

Very Good! I also changed this up a bit, 1/2 Whole Wheat Flour, applesauce in lieu of oil, was short on sugar, only had 3/4C so added 1/2C Brown sugar. Also, I used my own pumpkin puree(about 2C) and put White Choc Chips on the top. These are SO moist! Will definately make again, and again...

Delish! I made my own pumpkin pie spice, used high quality dried cranberries, and half whole wheat / half white flour. Oh, and I topped the batter with chopped walnuts before cooking. Perfectly balanced flavors. I noticed a lot of other raters cut the sugar in half, but I chose to use the full 2 cups. I didn't find the muffins too sweet. I think the whole wheat flour really cuts the sweetnes, but I'll probably cut the sugar in half next time (just in case those other cooks are right :) These muffins are yummy for any time of the year!

YUM!!! Made exactly as written using fresh cranberies, they turned out wonderful. I did only get 20, but I also filled mine a bit more full than 3/4 full. I'll be making these again soon.

Yummy! Alterations: I used only half of the amount of sugar (2/3 c brown, 1/3 c white). I didn't use pumpkin spice but instead used 1/4 t of the following: ginger, cloves, nutmeg, mace and 1/2 t of cinnamon. I also added streusel topping (1/4 c sugar, 3 T flour, 1/2 t cinnamon, 2 T butter [cut into dry ingredients, NOT melted]). I also kept the cranberries whole.

Great basic recipe!!! However, I tweaked them to make them a little healthier. I only used half the sugar, and the muffins were still really sweet. I can't imagine using 2 whole cups of sugar!!! I used whole wheat flour and added about 3 rounded tablespoons of ground flax to the dry ingredients. I also used 1.5 cups of dried cranberries instead of fresh and added more spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and allspice) to the pumpkin pie spice. Voila!! Delish!!!

Super yummy! I used whole wheat pastry flour, halved the sugar, and used egg replacer to make them vegan. I also didn't chop the cranberries because I like tart, gooey blobs of cranberry in my muffins. :o) They're a nice change from orange-cranberry muffins; I'll definitely make these again!

These are so good and so easy! Both my kids (ages 2 & 8) LOVED these as well. I used fresh cranberries chopped in my Pampered Chef Food Chopper and reduced the sugar to 1.5 cups. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
