I'm in love with this muffin!! I am so happy I found this recipe! I want to eat these for the rest of my life!! I took the advice of chungry1 and used 1/2 cup of applesauce and omitted the oil. Thank you!

These were a lovely change on Xmas morning instead of our traditional pancakes and bacon. I smeared a bit of icing across the top and a bit of colored sugar to appeal to the kids. I made a double batch and there are two left....for me tomorrow morning with my tea. Thanks for a new addition to my cookbook.

mmm... Great Christmas Eve-morning breakfast. I served them with boiled eggs and orange slices. My family realy liked them. I didn't have applesauce or molasses so I used a pealed and chopped apple and dark Karo syrup. But I can't wait to try them with molasses which is much more nutritional. Thanks for sharing! Liz

These are delicious. I made them this morning and as I did not have any applesauce I used grated bramley apple. I also added 1 knob of preserved stem ginger which I grated and 1 teaspoon of ginger syrup from the jar. Next time (and there WILL be a next time) I will add some orange zest. I baked them as jumbo muffins and got 6 lovely big ones. Wasn't sure how much sugar to sprinkle on top so sprinkled a healthy teaspoon on top of each and was rewarded with a lovely sweet white crackly surface on top. Thanks for a fabulouse muffin that I am eating as I type. Yummm!!
