Yes, I would use the same quantity as if I were using honey.

What about maple syrup instead of rapadura & how much do you think I should put? Would it be the same as your recommendation for the honey? Thanks! Can’t to make this.

I just made these! I have to say, I was a but hesitant at first- it seemed so dry. I also realized too late that I had put in 3/4 instead 1/3 cup of cocnut oil. Since it looked so dry, I added a couple of TB of homemade applesauce. But anyway- YYYUUUUMMO!! Hubby and daughter are devouring them. Love trying out your recipes! P.s. I also made green smoothies for the first time today and they are also a hit!

I used this recipe today, and found it to be too dry. You mentioned in you comments below, that you had the same problem. What was your solution? On your rasberry muffin recipe you had 2 eggs and 2/3 cup of sugar, so I’m gonna try to add a the extra egg and sugar. I love your recipes! Thanks for helping me be able to cook/bake better so my husband won’t starve!

I made these this morning with the blueberries and applesauce. They were fantastic! I loved how they were still super moist. I have two teenage boys that I continue to try and get to eat healthy. They loved them ~ in fact they both ate 3! thank you

Love this recipe! I decided to make it into banana bread loaves (instead of muffins) and it worked great. (example here -http://scottandemilyoneal.blogspot.com/2010/05/banana-bread.html) Thanks for sharing

This recipe is delicious! I did use a spelt whole wheat flour and instead of rapadura I used a 1/3 cup of maple syrup. It is probably not quite as sweet as what some are used to, but you can always drizzle a little honey on top if you need a fun topping after it comes out of the oven. My husband thought it was fine without the added honey.
I made the topping the a ground spice mix to add a little bit of an extra kick. I didn’t use the rapadura with the topping. It probably would have been better with it.
thanks for the recipe, I will definitely be making this again!

If you look through the comments you will find that when you replace the rapadura with 2/3 cup honey, and add that to the soaking step, it works. It does get dry and you will have to work it more the next day, but it did work for me.
