I made these, fast, easy and delicous. I added 1 cup of cooked quinoa, some walnuts (1/2 cup) and raisins (1/2) cup. This gave me 24 small muffins. As I didn''t increase the sugar they were not very sweet but I find muffins too sweet but still good to eat.

Has way too much vanilla extract in it. I don''t rate these high.
