  1. I changed the recipe a bit. I doubled it and got 24 muffins. I substituted oil for apple sauce, brown sugar for turbinado sugar, and I used 3 ripe mangoes. I also added two tablespoons of vanilla essence and juice from one lime. I also put lime zest on the top. They were delicious! I will definitely be making these again, only with different fruit, it was so easy to make!
     
  2. I made this with 2 cups of chopped peaches, no nectarines, only half a cup of sugar and added walnuts. The muffins came out perfect, moist and sweet.
     
  3. Really good. I added 1 tsp of cinnamon and vanilla and made mini muffins - so good.
     
  4. Wonderful! I doubled the recipe and instead of all white flour, I used 1 cup of white flour and 2 cups of whole wheat flour. (Couldn't even taste the wheat when they were baked). I used all peaches, and I added 1 tsp of almond extract. They turned out wonderfully. They were so sweet, I'd almost call them cupcakes without frosting. :)
     
  5. Didn't use the nectarine and just used peaches, doubled the recipe and cooked in a bundt pan for 40 minutes at 375. Turned out wonderful, smelled great while cooking and slicing. While it was baking and I was smelling the wonderful aroma I noted that their was no spices or flavoring, next time I make it which will be tomorrow to take to my sons daycare I am going to add a splash of almond extract. Very moist and all around perfect cake to have w/ coffee or tea for breakfast or ice cream for dessert.

  1. Added cinnamon, almond and vanilla extracts. Used applesauce and reduced the amount of oil.
     
  2. Made these with nectarines and wild blackberries. Fantastic muffin! Also, based on some reviews added 1 tsp cinnamon and 1 tsp vanilla. Also since some folks said the batter seemed too liquidy, substituted Fat Free yogurt for the milk and the texture of the batter was great. Measured out fruit to be about 1 1/2 cups and that seemed good. Could probably add a another 1/4-1/2 cup without too much trouble. I will make these again and again, trying different fruits in season. Can't wait!

  4. These were delicious! We added 1/2 tsp of cinnamon because we love cinnamon! We also used 3 small peaches instead of the nectarine. The brown sugar on top was perfect. Thanks for a great recipe!
     
  5. So yummy! I made some modifications to make it healthier. I used all whole wheat flour, egg beaters, and replaced 1/2 of the oil with applesauce. I used peaches only, and used 3 of them. I also added a little vanilla and cinnamone. This an an easy recipe and I will use it again. They came out delicious and the recipe made 12.
