Used regular tins, didn't even dawn on me there was such a thing as jumbo tins, don't make muffins that often. Should have wondered how Dunkin Donuts makes those large ones. The picture of the muffins looks like regular size. Anyway, puzzle solved.

Did you use regular size muffin tins or JUMBO size muffin tins?

These are delicious, but when I made them I wound up with 17 muffins, and I filled the paper muffin cups 3/4 full. Even if I would have filled them to the top I would have had more than 6. Puzzled in Pennsylvania.
