Not only did Rhonda Urich want "Light & Tasty" to cut the fat from her Morning Glory Muffins, but she hoped the staff could make them more nutritious. "I'd like to see flaxseed or whole wheat flour added, making them a healthy snack," explains the Loveland, Colorado reader. We did just that. See how in the pages of the Dec/Jan 2006 issue of "Light & Tasty."

These muffins were a complete disaster. They were so dry and crumbly, I couldn't even eat them.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my muffins turned out really dense. I'll have to try again.

These muffins were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra spices next time.

I found these muffins to be a bit dry. I think I'll try adding some extra moisture next time.

I'm not usually a fan of morning glory muffins, but these were surprisingly delicious. The addition of pineapple and walnuts gave them a nice twist.
