"No, not a first-time date gone bad. These healthy muffins are good boys. So don't let the lemon/date combo throw you off - these muffins are moist and delicious. Wonder if you could sub orange zest and juice for a different flavor profile? Hmmmmmm, off to try! Recipe by Pat Duran, slightly tweaked."

Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400^. Place cupcake papers in a muffin pan (cupcake pan). Spray papers with non-stick spray. Set aside.

Step 2

Combine the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl; mix to blend.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl combine remaining ingredients. Mix well to combine. Add this to the flour mixture; batter will be dough-like.

Step 4

Divide batter in half in the bowl, then 1/2 again (makes it easier to evenly distribute). This should fill the paper cups to the top.

Step 5

Bake for 25 minutes - testing with a wooden toothpick.

Step 6

Cool completely.

Eat as is or you can frost with: 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon soft margarine, and enough lemon juice to make spreadable.
