I just made these and they were fantastic! It’s hard to believe they’re low fat! I made 12 muffins and 18 mini muffins and used dark chocolate chips because that’s what I had. I recently found your website through pinterest and have made 2 of your recipes in the past two days and loved them both. Thanks for the great recipes!

These were so moist and delicious! I made mini loaves and added walnuts to a few of them for variety. Thanks for the recipe!

These were awesome!! I made these for my daughter’s Fall party today, and made mini muffins, which made lots. Some of the kids enjoyed them, but the teachers, other Moms & I absolutely loved them! My kids just love them!
