Excellent but definitely made these in smaller tins. On weight watchers and these muffins, based on 18 per batch are still approx. 6 points. BUT, if you make them in baby muffins, they aren't so bad and you get about 32. Those little bite size yummies just have to stop jumping off the plate into my mouth LOL.

Just finished making these and they are so moist!!! The flavor is amazing! I made them in a regular sized muffin tin and made 16 of them. I cooked them for 16 minutes. I will be using this recipe again!!

I made this recipe today and it turned out great everyone loved them. I added raisins to it though because I like both raisins and nuts in Pumpkin or banana baked items. I made normal size muffins and it made around 16 muffins and I baked them from 15 to 20 minutes and it worked out just fine.

These Muffins were fantastic. I know it takes a lot of ingredients and is not an easy recipe. But if you want to impress, this is the recipe that will do it.
