I just made THE BEST MUFFINS EVER. They turned out so nicely - moist, flavourful, fluffy :) I got the recipe here. The original recipe only makes 6 muffins, so I doubled it, but kept all of the ingredients the same. Oh, and I increased the cooking time (mine were definitely not done after 14 minutes). Next time I might consider using applesauce instead of oil, and possibly throwing in some flax seed (or using a "flax egg" instead of eggs). But then again, maybe I should just not mess with a good thing!
