I changed a few things (my husband always laughs at how incapable of actually following a recipe I really am!) because we only eat organic and\/or non-GMO foods. I used all natural peanut butter, and since the consistency was a little stickier than if I had used commercial, I added about 1\/4 cup of extra oats. I also used half all-purpose flour and half whole wheat flour. My husband and I both have bad teeth from a childhood of bad oral hygiene, so nuts of any kind are usually a bad idea for us. Instead, I used 1\/2 cup of raisins.  I love cinnamon, so I mixed cinnamon and sugar in a little bowl and sprinkled some on the top of each muffin before baking them. So yummy, and with all the healthy tweaks, I can feed these to my children for an easy, guilt-free breakfast. As far as muffins sticking to the papers, it usually means the muffins were baked just a teensy bit too long. It took me a while to figure out that my oven is hotter than it reads, but I don't know by how much. I can't seem to figure that part out. When I bake things, I start checking them about 1\/3 of the time before they are supposed to be done, and then every two minutes afterwards until they are done.
