I copied and pasted using the URL from these "healthy" banana muffins and they make 11. The calories per serving came out as 1431 for 1 muffin. I will go back, when I have time, and manually enter the ingredients. they are not double-sized muffins either!

    I also have noticed whacked out calories....double check what the system "found & used" to calculate. With the recipe I tried (url) it totally screwed up the banana entry.

    Yeah, I definitely don't trust the MFP recipe import tool. I've never used it.

    I always manually enter my recipes using the old recipe builder, because all of MFP's new features are glitchy as hell.

    I quick sat down and it came to 220 calories. Much better. It uses olive oil, honey, whole wheat flour, old fashioned oats, bananas, almond milk and 2 eggs and the "condiments" as I call them. Much better. I realize too there is no short cut - the old fashioned way is the way to go!

    Finding that hard to believe. when I paste in recipes, I usually have to correct the entries manually anyway.
