These are a winner. I love how many healthy ingredients they have. I made a couple of adjustments by omitting the white sugar and using half white flour half whole wheat flour. Family really liked them but everyone commented they tasted too strongly of baking soda.

I will make these again, but with less baking soda, or omit it entirely. They tasted a little soapy and my carrots turned green. I did some research and most recipe ratios say 1 tsp of baking powder per 1 cup of flour and 1/4 tsp of baking soda per 1 cup of flour. Thanks for the great recipe!

We made these welcome home muffins vegan style with flax eggs and regular soy oil. My vegan daughter LOVED them. They freeze well and allow her to grab a snack and run for school. Delicious.. so healthy and filling! We all loved them.

I make these muffins for my 16month old. I cut the sugar down to half a cup combined and add a little bit of pure maple syrup and honey. She loves these muffins as does my fiancee! Thanks so much

I calculated it. About 270 calories per muffin. Great for a healthy breakfast or a filling snack :)

Hi. I made these muffins. They’re really good! Would you know how many calories are in each muffin ?? I have to watch my calorie intake.

Hi Amy. I found this great article on The Best Sugar Alternatives for Baking. I think you’ll find some good options here. I may try a few of these myself. Let me know how they turn out.

Hello! These muffins sound delicious and nutritious;). I’m wondering if it would be possible to replace the white and brown sugars with something else like molasses, honey, and/or stevia as I’m trying to eliminate cane sugar from our diets?
