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.

Delicious! There were fights over these muffins. They were a little on the drier side, but everyone raved about the flavor. update: I made these again and baked them directly in the muffin cups greased with a little bit of shortening. I also added 1/2 t ground cinnamon and substituted 1/3 c vegetable oil for the butter. They were fantastic! A lot more moist, and they came up fluffier. Thanks again!

These muffins were delicious! Moist and very tasty! I didn't have the allspice so I had to omit it - but they still tasted great! Had to bake mine for a little longer. Next time I may add some chopped up walnuts or pecans for a change. Really great! This one is a keeper! Thanks Charlotte.

I had a craving for muffins this morning and discovered your recipe. I'm so glad I did because these muffins just hit the spot. Delightful, light and just the right amount of sweetness. I added just a touch more sugar to the mix because I have a sweet tooth. I'm headed back for another right now! Thank you, Charlotte for a wonderful breakfast!

These were so good! My husband doesn't care for muffins, and he said they were delicious! I only got 10 small muffins, so maybe next time I would update the recipe to make 16, and probably end up with 12 good size ones. They were light, and not too sweet. Very good!

Delicious muffins! I took the advice of leeannr and had the recipe resized to 16. It made 11 big ones! I didn't have allspice, so I substituted with a big dash of cinnamon. I also added an extra 1/8 cup sugar, just because Thanks for the great recipe!

This is a good recipe and results in a very tasty muffin. I too added cinnamon into the batter and skipped nutmeg (personal preference). However, I found that a few changes would serve very well - if you like sweet muffins I would suggest adding an additional 3-4 tbsp of sugar (I added 2 tbsp of brown sugar and it still wasn't quite enough). My muffins were on the dry side and the tops were almost burnt. I would recommend checking on the muffins in about 13 min and covering the top with foil if necessary to prevent excessive browning. Also, test for doneness at about 18 min. A final thought is not quite a suggestion but just information - this recipe makes less than 12 muffins unless your muffin tin is pretty small. I got 6 large ones. I will definitely make this recipe again with but the changes mentioned. Thanks for posting the recipe, Charlotte!

These are awesome muffins!! The perfect get your day started off right breakfast. They had a delicious spiced flavor and we loved the cinnamon-sugar topping. I served with steaming hot Mexican hot chocolate. Thanks Charlotte J, for another great recipe.

These muffins are wonderful, very reminiscent of an old fashioned cake donut. I am very impressed with them and will definitly be making them again. I doubled the recipe and at the end, melted the butter in one bowl, and put the cinnamon sugar in another. I then rolled the muffin tops in the butter and then the sugar. It worked out perfectly. Thanks for a great recipe.
