I modified quite a bit: Used buttermilk in place of water (plus 1/2 tsp. baking powder), 2 cups agave nectar instead of sugar (added to wet ingredients), and folded in crystallized ginger, golden and dark raisins, and dried cranberries (total about 1 1/4 cups). Yummy.

I doubled the recipe to use up some of the pumpkins from the garden and my family has to say "this was one of the best tasting we have ever had!" I did add about 1/2 cup honey, with cutting back the sugar one cup. then sprinkling about 1/2 brown and 1/2 white sugars mixed sprinkled on the muffin tin to have a texture as well as the top. WONDERFUL!

I made these muffins and they were great they were just REALLY SWEET and I used even less sugar than called for. I used 2 c. and they were still so sweet I couldn't frost them. It just would have been too much. I think next time I'm going to use a cup of white and 1/2 cup of brown sugar but they were perfect!

PS... I also brushed the tops with melted butter and dipped them in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon... a little added taste.

I love this recipe! I made mini muffins with the cream cheese frosting for my preschooler's snack day. Then I turned around and made it into pumpkin bread mini loaves. I decreased the sugar by 1/2 cup and it was so yummy!!

The recipe is easy and delicious! I also followed the reviews' advice and cut back on the sugar (I did 1 1/2 C White sugar and 1/2 C brown sugar). I also added chocolate chips and a sprinkle of cinnamon and brown sugar on top for a crispy sweet flavor! Yum :)
