Really good! I used dried cranberries and oil for the melted butter. After reading other reviews, I made 2/3 of a batch which filled my muffin tin perfectly. I baked them about 17 minutes (but my oven runs hot).

    These muffins are sooo yummy!! My 16 yr old daughter couldn't quit eating them. I would never have thought of putting dried cherries in a corn muffin, but it is very nice. These muffins go great with a nice spicy bowl of soup or chili, the sweetness is a perfect contrast to a spicy dish. I used whole wheat pastry flour when I made mine, so mine weren't quite as yellow as the picture, but they were still very pretty. Thanks for the post!!

    These muffins are AMAZING! I love how the cornmeal contrasts with the tart sweetness of the cherries. I had enough batter left over after making 12 regular sized muffins to make several mini muffins for the kids. These will be regulars at our house. Thank you!

    These have a very good flavor, not too sweet and the cherries give just the right touch. Although I could remove these from the pan without problems, the texture tended to crumble and fall apart when handling, which was a little messy and had me picking at crumbs like a bird. Also, I found this recipe would make 1 1/2-2 dozen normal sized muffins, so if someone doesn't have the extra pan or time, they might consider cutting the recipe in half.
