This recipe is great if you add 2 tsp of baking powder. They came out great with the altered recipe. I think they just forgot to add the baking powder.

<p>I agree with Tammy3839.  Seems like there is an error in the recipe as it is missing salt which is why I only gave 4 stars. I knew as soon as I tasted one and the flavor seemed a little flat. Wish I would have noticed it when I was making them. Otherwise, the spice and apple flavor was really good. I will make this again but will definitely be adding salt. </p>

Very, very bland.  They ended up looking nothing like the picture. It's like this is the wrong recipe.   It would probably make a really good waffle batter.

I just have to share: I've renamed these "Frantic Working Mom Muffins" after my comedy of errors trying to make them this morning for my 1-and 4-year old kids.  I went for the sugar, and found there was only a half a cup left.  No problem, I thought, I'll substitute maple syrup! Except I didn't have enough of that either. So I used what I had. No problem, I thought, I'll use brown sugar! No dice.... none in the cupboard.  Honey? Why not. Then came the applesauce.  We ALWAYS have applesauce in our fridge. But I only had a cup and a half left. No problem, I thought! I'll use banana to make up the other half cup! Except I only had a half a banana left and that only accounted for 1/4 cup.  No problem! I had a puree pouch of sweet potato and apple baby food. In to the mix it went.  And you know what? Not bad at all!  Probably not as sweet as the original, but my kids gobbled them up and called them yummy! Thank you for a wonderful recipe -- and for an ADAPTABLE one, ha! Can't wait to try again once I've been to the grocery store. :-)

The taste is out of this world.  So good.  They didn't brown like I would like so next time I will use the convection part of my overn to make them.  I sure will be making them again.

Had leftover applesauce that I wanted to use before it went bad.  Halved the recipe & used mini-muffin pans (bake time 10-13 minutes). They are SO tasty! Doubt they'll last a day at my office!

Delicious!I made a couple adjustments:I made half the recipe and 42 mini muffins and I used half the sugar besides.  I also used whole wheat flour, omitted the walnuts, and used nutmeg instead of allspice (I didn't have any allspice on hand)

These muffins are pretty good, I used the applesauce I had which was spiced Amish applesauce. I think next time I would add diced apples to it.

Excellent muffins - followed directions exactly but only made 1/2 the recipe as it is only my husband and me.  Will definitely make again.

Yummy muffins!  Easy recipe.  I did sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the tops before baking and was very glad I did, that made them extra delicious.

These were good and flavorful. Also easy to make. I think next time I will add something for a little more moisture. But overall,the recipe is a keeper

Just one suggestion - can you add size of muffins - minis, large, super larger? Then I know how much to make for my guests. Thank you!

Excellent recipe. I had cake flour on hand so I used that, but that was the only change. I did choose to sprinkle the tops with cinnamon sugar mixture, but doing this made them pretty sweet. I used sweetened applesauce and I wonder if I would prefer unsweetened next time or just eliminate the the cinnamon sugar mix on top. I cooked 20 minutes and the muffin came out really tender. I would make again. I did cut the recipe in half because there are only two of us here and I am going to try freezing a few to eat at a later time.

LOVE them!!  this is my go to muffin recipe..... I have added craisins or a shredded apple.... possibilities are endless.  I use my homemade applesauce and top it with homemade apple butter..."All-Day Apple Butter Recipe"..... thanks for sharing!!

This was a fantastic recipe. It had the right balance of all the flavors. I would 100% recommend trying.

Good. I adjusted for altitude by taking out some of butter and sugar. Tasty!

I was looking for a new fall desert recipe and came across this one. I made it immediately and my wife and I thought it was very good. I'll be making these again soon (with butter cream frosting)

These turned out great! I mixed cinnamon with sparkling sugar and sprinkled on top before baking. De-lish!

Good basic recipe that can be dressed up.  Next time I will use chunky applesauce and add raisins (hydrated) along with the walnuts.

I was very disappointed… these muffins are absolutely lousy. They are not a pretty looking muffin and, even with sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top, they tasted awful. Don’t waste your time making these!
