7 Reviews of Aruba-Duba-Do Muffins

From: Grandma Sharon #2

On Mar 7, 2006

Quite tasty and easy to make. I used a brown sugar substitute as I am diabetic and would like to substitute applesauce for the butter the next time to lower the fat content. My three year old grandson asked for seconds!!

    These are soooo moist! And very yummy. I was worried that they weren't going to bake through. I did bake for 30 minutes. This recipe made 15 muffins! I Loved them!

    I also used sweet potato baby food-- and I couldn't find fresh mango and papaya, but Dole makes a tropical fruit blend in a jar that was a good substitute. The ginger was a little strong-- I'll probaby use just 1/2 tsp next time. I didn't find it to be too sweet with the 3/4 cup sugar. I did have to bake longer, making 18 muffins. After 25 min at 325 they turned out nice and moist. I wonder if using the baby food adds a little more liquid, thus requiring a longer cook time? Anyway, thanks for a tasty muffin!

    Ok I wanted to try one more recipe for RSC#8 and I was in the mood for muffins. So during my baking spree I tried these. I love anything with mango, never really tried too many recipes with papayas though. These were so moist and flavorful, just an incredible muffin and easy to work with. I has some sweet potatoe frozen on hand to use up also. I think this will be a very popular muffin recipe here on zaar. I loved em !!

    I didn't have any mango, so I replaced them with canned pears. I also used sweet potato baby food, so there was very little preparation! Although I used unsweetened coconut, I still found the recipe overly sweet, so I will reduce the brown sugar to 1/2 cup next time. After baking for 30 minutes, it was still a tad undercooked... but my muffins were probably a little big because I only got 12. Very versatile, tasty, and moist muffin! Thanks
