And I'm sure honey replacing the molasses will be fine, especially since it's only 1 tbsp so you could just omit it if you want. Good luck! =)eatme_delicioushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14657772782487330009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215952987234403681.post-16986594567867492122009-01-19T17:48:00.000-08:002009-01-19T17:48:00.000-08:00These look amazing and I was going to try them tonight... but I forgot to buy soy milk and molasses and I don't keep them in the house. Do you think it would be alright to use regular cow's milk and to skip the molasses? Could I add honey instead of molasses? Sorry if these seem simple questions--I'm a baking newbie. If you or anyone else happens to see this post soon and could let me know that would be great! If not, I'll let you know how my experiment turns out...

That recipe also called for 2 cups of flour, so I just reduced the flour to 1 3/4 cups, kept the spices the same for more flavor, and reduced the sweetening just a tad--worked great!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215952987234403681.post-69741469451786978872008-03-30T22:33:00.000-07:002008-03-30T22:33:00.000-07:00Thanks for the comments everybody!

I love pumpkin bread, muffins are so cute and handy they just might make it for breakfast.<BR/>What to do with the last 3/4 cup? Soup!

I tried this recipe and it came out delicious and was a huge hit with my 4 yr old daughter! What do you think of adding about a 1/4 cup of wheat germ? Anything to get my little one to eat healthier!

But oh WOW, do these look lovely--and healthy to boot! The texture on top is perfect for a muffin--plenty of little craggy bits to pull off a crumb. My favorite part of eating muffins!!

Last year I went a little crazy trying to make a great batch of 12 muffins using the whole can of pumpkin. I was totally obsessed and made numerous batches, some of which were OK but not perfect and many which were "pumpkin mush muffins". <BR/><BR/>As far as the leftover pumpkin in the can, I suggest you make a little pumpkin butter to spread on your muffins. There is a very simple recipe for pumpkin butter on my blog under the "breakfast category". Check it out, it's very versatile and you can customize it to your taste. I also have a recipe for pumpkin dessert dip and pumpkin yogurt, all great for using up the remaining pumpkin.LisaRenehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17033748967210196808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8215952987234403681.post-57554309301388854092008-03-23T14:58:00.000-07:002008-03-23T14:58:00.000-07:00wow, these muffins look simply amazing, and yes! they so fit the balanced breakfast criteria!!
