I enjoyed quite a lovely breakfast this morning, thanks to you, Kim! This recipe supplied 8 regular sized muffins that baked for 18 minutes when done. I filled the remaining 4 empty muffin cups half way with water. I used Kim's suggested powdered sugar drizzle over these delicious muffins and couldn't wait for them to cool, so ate 2 right away! Wonderful recipe for my Saturday morning (or anytime)!!

These were very dry and somewhat bland. I could not eat them without butter, and even then they were too dry.

I made this at the very last minute when I needed to whip up some muffins for a guest who was already on the way to my house. I was nervous filling the cups because the batter looked very thick. Also, I didn't see a length of time for cooking. I guessed 10 minutes and added another five. They could have used another couple of minutes but we liked them just how they were. Turned out fantastic! So easy and flavorful. I didn't even add a topping. There was a nice, slight crunch to the edges and the inside was soft and tasty. Thanks! A keeper.

This recipe was just what I needed when I wanted a treat for my son and had weird ingredients in the house :). I had to use subtitutes because I was out of eggs and regular oil -- I used 1/4 c. applesauce in place of the egg and lemon-infused olive oil in place of the regular oil. I then put some cinnamon sugar on top of each muffin just before baking. Made 9 regular sized muffins and cooked 18 minutes, came out moist and delicious. THANK YOU!

I am somewhat new to this whole cooking/baking thing, but I am good at following recipes. These came out AMAZING. I read some reviews and made sure not to overcook them, and added a little extra cinnamon, and the frosting came out great, too. I added this to my favorites and I'll most definitely be making these again. Thank you!!
