I'd say these were just OK. Good texture, but very little flavor. I doubt I'll make again. I did omit the orange (personal pref....I love cranberries but HATE orange), used brown sugar rather than Splenda, and used 1C white and 1C whole wheat flour, so I wonder if that had any impact. Regardless - thanks for sharing!

These muffins are so good. Great flavor and great results. I didn't have skim milk so I used whole milk. I used unsweetened applesauce. Thanks DDCooks. Made for PAC Spring 2009
