• Cinnamon Muffins

  Filed under Muffins/Quick Breads
  May 4
  I am on a muffin kick lately. In fact, I even thought about doing a “Muffin Week” because I have so many recipes to share, but then I decided against it since I have my Cookbook of the Month and Saturdays with Rachael Ray posts that would just mess everything up. Plus, I don’t want to ruin them by giving you too much of a good thing, right? So you may not see a whole week of muffins, but I can guarantee that you’ll see lots of muffins here over the next month(s).

  I’ve always love muffins, but we have discovered that our little girl LOVES muffins. Seriously, I don’t think anything else makes her happier. She sees a muffin and you won’t hear the end of it until she gets one (or two). And she can really put them down for a 15-month old. And since I love her so much, I make her muffins. (Don’t worry – as much as she’d love sugary muffins to be her breakfast every morning, I really only make them about once a week!)

  These muffins are exactly what I was hoping for. I’m rarely disappointed when I go to one of my family cookbooks for a recipe, and this one did not dissappoint. I did add the cinnamon sugar to the top – the original recipe didn’t have that – but besides that, I didn’t need to change a thing. Super easy, super delicious!

   My daughter loves muffins too. I can almost hide anything in a muffin form and she'll eat it.
   Cinnamon muffins sound well worth waking up for!

    I see the word cinnamon and I am there. Add muffins and I am printing the recipe.

    We are also muffin lovers and this looks like a great addition to my collection.

    I made these muffins for my pregnant daughter in law last night. She was craving muffins.
    She ate three in one sitting! I had one this morning with coffee. Oh. My. Soooo good.

    I chose to simply top the muffins with turbinado sugar before baking. Too delicious! This recipe is a home run! Thank you!
