Pumpkin Banana Muffins

The instructions call for melted butter, but butter is omitted in the ingredient list. Please edit the recipe to include the amount of butter required.

Yes, I recommend

Not recommended

The spices didn’t stand up to the ingredients. I would double the amounts of spice. The banana flavor didn’t come through. The muffins tasted like a plain wheat bread-needed a bit of sweetness. Furthermore the ingredients didn’t list butter but the directions did. Please correct it.
I’ve enjoyed many other recipes in this hub. This one disappointed.

No, I don’t recommend
