I have to say when I was mixing this it smelled so good! When I opened the oven when they were done, it smelled so good! Unfortunately, they smelled better than they tasted. I mean their edible and my daughter liked them. So at least I know I can pawn them off on her in her lunch pale. I added raisins which I am glad I did because they would of had no sweetness to them. I also used apple sauce instead of the oil. Sadly, I wont be making these again.

just made em. substituted low fat sour cream for half of vegetable oil( for me was way too much oil), also used organic sugar, rolled instant spelt+oats, wheat flour. my son said they were okay. next time I will add 3 tbsp. of honey and dried cranberries or frozen blueberries. I didn't use any walnuts. I really like texture. baked same temp for almost half hour. good recipe.

These were great. I made as stated but used 1 cup of wheat flour and 1/2 cup of white flour. Great flavor, I used the ginger instead of cinnamon and the texture in these is great for a lower fat muffin.

Another great Redsie muffin recipe! This is healthy and low in fat, something I look for, and the cinnamon flavour was wonderful. My sons enjoyed these muffins for breakfast and as lunch treats.

Made for Healthy Choices 2008 ABC (May). These weren't as sweet as I expected them to be, but they were good none the less. I was able to make these GF by substituing Bob's Red Mill AP GF Flour and GF Oats. Thanks for posting this recipe Redsie!

Canadian girl that loves to cook for herself and for everyone around her!! I always enjoyed cooking but more so since I started taking better care of myself by eating healthier food (I am a Weight Watchers Lifetime member!). I still love my chocolate though!<img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/samethingsticker.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"><img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/SoupsandsaladSTICKER.jpg"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/PastastickerJPEG.jpg"> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/derf16/food%20photography%20series/MuffinLovesticker.jpg"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/Other/photo-swap-7sticky.jpg"> <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/L%5B1%5D.F-stickJPEG.jpg"> <img src="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj240/marienixon_715/kittencaljpg.jpg"> <img src="http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2003-11/484938/Spelling-Bee-stick2jpg.jpg"><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Octoberevent.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/200_PACpic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/projects/pacbanner.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/untitled.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/200_artistrichardneuman-art-prints_.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/TasteofYellow.jpg"><img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1535/CLC1.gif"><img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Derfcookathon.jpg">
