Just a note, I submitted a 'correction' to this recipe - 3/4 cup of brown sugar is listed in the ingredients but does not mention when to add it in the directions. I included it within the section of combining flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt... I have actually made a similar mistake when one of my recipes was published. A little embarrassing but no big deal. Thanks so much for the recipe!

Made these muffins as per recipe and they are delicious. I have frozen them and they reheat and taste great.

I made some changes. I doubled the recipe. I did half honey half molasses. I used applesauce instead of oil. I used barley flour. I added 1tsp cinnamon. DELISH!

I was trying to take the picture of these muffins and one of my sons kept trying to steal it off the plate. Very easy to do. I substituted buttermilk for the soured milk. Great rise on the muffins and they taste fantastic!
