Applesauce Oatmeal Muffin-Tops (Or Muffins) image

Great for breakfast, snack or a brown-bag lunch. Adjust baking time accordingly if making regular muffins. Original recipe comes from William and Sonoma, however I've made a couple additions. UPDATE: The recipe has been changed to incorporate suggestions from reviwers. UPDATE #2: Also changed the instructions to reflect the previous changes.

I'm going to try making these muffins with gluten-free flour next time.

These muffins are delicious, but they're a little bit too high in calories for me.

I'm allergic to apples, so I substituted mashed bananas in this recipe. The muffins turned out great!

These muffins are way too expensive. I can get a dozen muffins at the store for half the price.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my muffins turned out dry. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These muffins are a little bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I'm not a big fan of applesauce, but these muffins were still delicious. The oatmeal topping really made them.

I love that these muffins are made with whole wheat flour and applesauce. They're a healthier alternative to traditional muffins, but they're still just as delicious.

I've tried a lot of different applesauce muffin recipes, but this one is by far the best. The muffins are so light and fluffy, and the applesauce gives them a perfect amount of moisture.

These muffins are amazing! They're so moist and flavorful, and the applesauce adds a delicious sweetness. I also love the oatmeal topping - it gives the muffins a nice crunch.
