My family adored these muffins. Since they use shortening and such a small amount of cinnamon, I was afraid they might be bland. I was pleasantly surprised to find them very moist and enjoyable. The flavor of the muffins really complimented the fresh peaches. I think the key to this being a great muffin is having great peaches to work with. The only think I plan on doing differently next time is mixing the cinnamon with the flour rather than the wet ingredients since I had trouble with it clumping together.
