I made these muffins today, with a few small changes: I used butter instead of soy margerine, and regular milk in place of the rice milk (what I had on hand), added 1/2 tsp cinnamon to the muffins (in addition to the cinnamon in the topping), and used 1 cup whole wheat flour and 1 cup Nutragrain Flour (available in Canada, has more nutrition and fibre than white, but behaves like white.) They were very good muffins - I would just up the cinnamon I added to the muffin batter next time. The topping was awesome! Made for PAC Spring '09 - thanks for the recipe - I'll definately make it again! Thanks! -
Yummy! These are awesome!

I'm an ethical vegan, atheist, wife and stay-at-home mother of a 7 year old DD and 1 year old DS. I have also been known to hug a tree from time to time, but I don't do it professionally. I love life, walk around in awe of the universe, and am always made happier by things that smell delicious. Like pumpkin pie spice. And turmeric.
We've been vegan since Fall '08, and are just starting to feel like we know the tricks of the trade...and Recipezaar has certainly made the transition easier. Yey Recipezaar!
