    I just tried this recipe and can agree on a couple of the previous comments. They did smell wonderful while baking, and they did taste a lot like cake donuts. However, something was obviously not right as the batter seemed more like pancake batter than a muffin batter, sothey did not rise up much. Instead they seemed like little cinnamon hockey pucks...tasty ones tho'. For those who thought they should taste sweeter, try adding about a teaspoon of vanilla. Also, if I try these again I would alter it a bit and put a dab of preserves as a middle layer between two blobs of batter. Then you end up with something tasting like a jelly donut.

    Nice moist texture, but not really sweet enough.

    I make these muffins a lot as we love them. I usually use oil rather than butter though as it seems to help them be moister. I've found it works really good to make them the night before and store in a sealed container on the counter until morning.

    We enjoyed these muffins. They have a nice texture and taste, but I will add cinnamon to the batter next time I make them. I was looking for a stronger cinnamon taste.
