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.

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

These were absolutely delicious! Beyond grateful to have healthful snacks like this to enjoy, thank you so much. I did use Stevia brown sugar. A keeper for sure!
