I made these for my husbands birthday breakfast. He loved them! I had to add a small amount more milk to get them to easily spoon into the muffin tins. Besides that they turned out great. I am sure he will ask for these again! Thanks.

Nice muffins. My batter was pretty thick so I added more milk. They were quick to mix together. Liked the flavor the macadamia nuts added to the muffin. We enjoyed them with our morning coffee. Thanks Chris from Kansas
