Like my father, I love to spend time in the kitchen inventing new recipes. There are a few pleasures greater than sampling one of these warm muffins on a winter day. —Kimberly Kronenburg, New Lenox, Illinois

Big Batch Baked Goods

We enjoy homemade baked goods for breakfast, but I don’t have time to bake each morning before school. So I devote 1 day a month to making large batches of cinnamon rolls, doughnuts, cream cheese rolls and muffins. I place them in heavy-duty resealable plastic bags labeled with the date. (They freeze for about 2 months.) On busy mornings, it’s a snap to pop a few in the microwave to warm. The kids love the fresh-baked flavor. —Lori T., New London, Texas

These are super moist! I made then in 4 mini bread loave pan's and made a little extra topping. Everyone that got a loaf were very pleased!

Reviewed on Feb. 23, 2012 by momknowsbest

These were delicious! The recipe makes 16 nice size muffins however I was a little short on the topping, so next time make just a little bit more. My oven baked them in about 14 minutes so keep checking a little early. I would have given this 5 stars if i didn't haven't to make these adjustments.

I have many muffin recipes and make a lot of them and I thought these would be "average" but wow they are delicious. Not too heavy, fantastic flavour. Don't change a thing and the topping is an absolute "must". MMmmmmm....
