I have made this muffin recipe for several years and I really enjoy it for breakfast.I especially like the no fat an not a lot of sugar. I have shared these muffins with my friends and they like it too. Its been referred to as healthy muffins.

Whoa, didnt realize now much fat there was in these. On the WeightWatchers Plus - they are 6 points! Id like to eat two of them, because they are so good. NOT FATFREE THOUGH. Thats why theyre so good.

I make these for my husbands breakfast at work, he loves them and finds they keep him satisfied from 6a.m. to lunch! Why isnt there any nutritional information on these???
Regina January 16, 2012
Great muffins! Ive subsituted blueberries instead of raisins. And I usually get about 20 muffins out of the recipe.
@ Patty - I leave out the nuts and Im sure there is less fat.

Amazing muffins! Theyre filling and delicious. So easy to make too! Im so happy I found this recipe.

I love this recipe and often suggest it to my patients, as I am a Nurse. Flaxseed is known to lower cholesterol, and that combined with oat bran is a high source of fibre. I always cut the sugar in this recipe in half, and also substituted egg whites for the eggs. My Kids love them!

I made these muffins last night and just notice the calorie content. a bit surprising but when i made them i used an egg substitute as well as soy milk.
I am sure that changes the calorie/fat amount. They were amazing.

really yummy recipe. have made them several times, always a hit in our house, even with little boys.

L-O-V-E these healthy muffins. However, I got 21 muffins, and had to bake for more like 27 min. Also found theres no way you can avoid using liners.....they even stick to those a little. Also agree with Regina.....its got to be the walnuts. Next time try almonds....better fat.

Delicious, moist recipe that I made 10+ years ago and revisited here recently. Very healthy ingredients if you have a whole-food lifestyle. There is fat but thats because of the healthy fats in the flax, nuts and eggs.Healthy fats are good for you!

I have used this recipe numerous times and it always is delicious. My father and husband are diebetic so I replace the sugars with 1/2 honey and 1/2 Splenda and increase the water a bit. I have melted sugarfree turtle chocolates for frosting. YUM.

I love these muffins!! A great breakfast! I added extra spices...cloves & nutmeg.

These muffins are spectacular and so healthy! I use blueberries and walnuts, and make 12 instead of 15 for a 300 calorie muffin (you have to bake them 35 minutes and really stuff the muffin cups for this to work). Fantastic! =)

I have baked these several different ways and find them delicious ! I prefer to use applesauce (no sugar added kind) in place of sugar, cranberries instead of raisins and omit the nuts. Once I used old fashion oats as i had not oat bran they were still great!
Jessica October 20, 2012
Yummy muffins enjoyed by the whole family. Cooking it in a loaf pan also works and is easier to store/freeze for use later. I'm so glad to find a delicious breakfast that is easy, filling, and healthy!
Elizabeth December 31, 2012
LOVE THEM!! But holy moly 6 pts on WW !! YIKES I guess they are a good 6 pts though....Right ???
michele January 16, 2013
such a great recipe. I make these once a month and everyone loves them. Now making them in my preschool class and they are hit!
Edith January 28, 2013
I love this recipe. I've made it twice and used duck eggs and pecans both times. The first time I made them I hand grated the carrots and apples. The second time I grated them in a food processer. I recommend the food processer. It's super quick and contains the liquid.
Stacey February 18, 2013
I made these muffins for the first time tonight at my husband's request. I used whole wheat flour instead of white, apple sauce instead of apples and Splenda instead of sugar. They are really delicious. I made twelve large muffins.
Angie February 19, 2013
These are awesome...I use 1/2 the sugar and would like to try apple sauce instead and have no sugar...
craftykeri March 7, 2013
Excellent and moist! My toddlers and I love them. They're sweet but not overly so. I substituted 3/4c shelled hemp seed for the 1c nuts (we have nut allergies) and had no oat bran so I used the last 1/4c of my wheat germ and 1/2c ground oatmeal. Easy recipe. Will make these again!
Rita Wright March 10, 2013
This is a great recipe and can be easily modified to reduce cholesterol content by simply adding two generous table spoons of apple sauce and omitting the eggs. Muffins are still perfect while keeping flax and bran benefits formost.
Linn May 27, 2013
I love these muffins! Healthy but good at the same time!
daisy36 June 16, 2013
I made these muffins today and were excellent. I didn't add the nuts or carrot. I added apples, organic dried cranberries and will try the apple sauce like others have recommended for next time!
