I've actually thought of trying it myself, but they're just so darn good the way they are that I haven't bothered. <br />The amount of fat isn't far off of what most muffin recipes call for, especially considering that it makes such a large batch. It's really just the avocado that bumps it up a bit, and that would be the case with nuts or any other higher fat addition. That being said, I do think fat is an important part of a healthy diet for most people, and it's not something that I go out of my way to avoid. However, you have inspired me to fiddle with the recipe next time I make them.<br />I hope you'll let me know how it goes if you experiment with it!Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08034794313638177847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30711036.post-80556115042668897602010-04-28T17:43:10.355-07:002010-04-28T17:43:10.355-07:00Do you think they really need all that butter?

I can hardly call these healthy with the fat content as it is.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03441108568751750583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30711036.post-16315553331682532292010-03-11T09:59:08.790-08:002010-03-11T09:59:08.790-08:00Annie - Her food looks pretty amazing, doesn't...Annie - Her food looks pretty amazing, doesn't it? Unfortunately, we didn't always eat like that when I was growing up. (Maybe that's for the best!).<br /><br />Angie - I'm so glad that your family liked them!<br /><br />Jenny - I've been meaning to post over there for ages.
