I hate to disagree with the other reviewer but I must. I had high hopes for these muffins. I loved the ingredient list and while they sounded rich, they also sounded healthy with all the fruits and veggies. The one thing that worried me was the amount of butter. I was correct to worry. When these came out of the oven, they were so greasy that the paper liners were oily on the OUTSIDE. The texture of them is rubbery and far far too dense and they don't have that nice balloony muffin rise one expects. they are flat and just... dense. I CAN say that the flavor was good. But sadly that wasn't enough to get past the texture and greasiness. Also, the directions weren't clear enough on bake time. I have been cooking fpor a long time but no cooking time could confuse someone with less experience. The amount was far off too. They made 45 muffins. WAY more than the recipe says. I will try these one more time with about half the amount of butter and more leavening (far too little for the amount of batter) and see what happens. I seriously HATE leaving a bad review but I don't feel I have a choice. Thank you for sharing nonetheless and if these turn out better with decreased butter and more baking powder/soda, I will revise this.
