The flavor of these was exactly what I was looking for. Just like grabbing your fluffy pancakes and syrup without needing a plate. They're smooth and moist. I didn't add the topping and I don't really think they need it. Any more sugar would be to much in my opinion. I added 1 tsp maple extract along with the vanilla as well. I think this would be even better in a loaf form and I'm going to try that the next time. Big slices spread with butter :) Next time I'll probably try this with self rising flour or double the baking powder since they didn't rise quite as much as I'd like. I'd also like to try them with half butter/half shortening. Either way they're scrumpious!

Loved these muffing. I also greased our tins rather than use cups and they came out fine. To us you do not need to add nothing to them to eat. Perfect the way they are. I can see us having them again.

The flavor of these muffins was just as delicious as the smell of them baking! Wonderful hot with a little butter! I baked them in a greased tin rather than cups and they turned out just fine.
