the name 'incredible' fits this recipe perfectly! the taste reminded me semolina halva. I added 1/4 cup raisins and 1/2 carob chips and baked it in a 9' round baking pan like a cake. Another version that I have tried: replace brown sugar and honey with maples syrup and add a teaspoon cocoa powder

I love these! I made them plain and the texture and flavour are very good. I used white sugar (my brown sugar was a brick) and molasses. I'm looking forward to trying different variations. I think cheese (like old cheddar or gouda) and chopped apples would be really good, or raisins or blueberries.

I give it 5 stars for a recipe with no wheat and they were great. And only 126 calories a muffin. Everyone liked them. I used agave for all the sweetner and added 1/4c more oatbran (forgot to reduce the milk for the extra 1/4c of liquid for the brown sugar.) I thought the texture was good and mine weren't crumbly. I made plain ones, but next time I will try to flavor them with something, most likely cinnamon, but the fruit sounds good, also some cheese savory flavored ones sound good. The recipe on the bag of oatbran I bought was half bran and half wheat flour, this is much better. Would have loved to have had this recipe 25 years ago when I was doing a no wheat, rice or corn diet for my daughter. Much better than buckwheat muffins!!!! Thanks for sharing. We forget there are people who NEED these recipes.

These were very good. I replaced 2T of oat bran with 2T flax meal, used the molasses and added 1/2 cup orange craisins. I wasn't sure about the batter at first because it was rather soupy, but these turned out delicious. They are dense, but not heavy. They were a little crumbly, though. The molasses made them a little too sweet for me, so I will use less next time. Rest assured that there will be a next time, though. My 20 month old thinks these are "cake", so I let him eat cake. Thanks for a delicious recipe.
