I made these muffins last night using half the amount of sugar the recipes calls (1/4 cup granulated and 1/8 cup brown) so my muffins came out a bit dry. I think I also overbaked them a bit as well. But when using less sugar in a recipe, what adjustments can I make so that my muffins aren't so dry? Thanks in advance for your help! Hi - Sugar definitely helps with moistness... Try this: Use 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1/3 cup applesauce, and 1/4 cup water, see how that works. Good luck - PJH
