Very, very good. I didn't have enough chocolate chips, so I added some mini M&Ms. They went really quick. I liked this because the banana flavor wasn't too overpowering, just a good way to use up the last couple bananas no one wants.

My family really enjoyed these. I followed the recipe other then I used 1/2 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of Splenda. I also used milk chocolate chips. These are big muffins but mine cooked up in 22 minutes.

These were moist and oh so big! So big that the middle wasn't baked after 30 minutes in the oven. :( - Used a little less sugar and they were just perfect. Will make 14-15 muffins next time to make sure they are baked through! Thanks Kat! ;)

Great muffin. Very moist. The next time I make these I think I will use brown sugar. The oats gave them a nice texture. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
