SO HOW'D IT GO?

These are great!!! On a scale of 1 to 10 my 8y yr. son gave them "over a 10". I used flax for the eggs, vegan margarine, 100% whole wheat pastry flour, walnuts instead of pecans (simply because I did not have any pecans), and I did not sift anything (because I'm lazy ;)). Thanks for the most delicious recipe. I will definitely be making these again!

OMG, these are pretty much the best muffins EVER. I used EnerG for the egg, Smart Balance margarine instead of shortening, rice milk, and I added a teaspoon each of baking soda and vanilla extract. They rose nicely and they have to be the cutest looking muffins I've ever made. For the topping, I used walnuts instead of pecans and I didn't measure it, I just eyeballed it. Also, I cooked them for an extra 4 minutes to make sure they were done and I waited for them to cool before eating like someone else said. I took a photo, I'll post it when I get the film developed. Thanks for the recipe!  ;D
