Reviews forJumbo Pumpkin Pecan Muffins
My Review

"I made these to take into a meeting and they were a hit. I used homemade pumpkin pie spice and the flavor was perfect. They bake up as beautiful jumbo muffins. I did not use liners. The streusel topping makes the muffin. Everyone who had one loved them. I like that it makes only 6. I omitted the pecans from the batter and just used them in the topping. Definitely a keeper!
~Volunteer Field Editor""I saw the previous review that said these were dense and thought maybe these would be good as mini loaves of bread (as gifts for the holidays). While they tasted pretty good, I definitely think these would work better as muffins. In one of the loaves I put in dark chocolate chips and it tasted SO good. I will probably make these again, as muffins, and add in the chocolate chips."
"I liked the texture of these muffins and used my own mixture of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg instead of pumpkin pie spice. Will add more next time for more flavor. I also liked that they were not overly sweet."
"After reading the reviews about "too bland", I noticed I was out of vanilla, but had almond and wow what a great taste...pecans, pumpkin and almond flavoring...good choice. thanks..."
"I have made these muffins multiple times. I don't have a jumbo muffin pan so I made them regular muffin size and added mini chocolate chips. So good!"
"Received rave reviews at home and the office! Very moist!"
"My husband and I thought the texture was off, too dense for us. They also lacked flavor in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, they did get eaten but just not what I expected."
"Sorry, they were lacking flavor for me."
"Wonderful, I hate to tweek a great recipe, but it was great w/ o nuts too. Amazing, my daughter said!"
"These are so good! Perfect with a cup of coffee on a cool morning...or warm morning...or for a snack...haha!"
