Cinnamon donut muffins are a family favorite, particularly when the weather starts getting cooler. They’re easy to make and oh, so delicious. Warning: they’re addictive!
The secret ingredient is the nutmeg, so be sure to add it to the batter. Or could it be the cinnamon sugar that makes these muffins so irresistible?
I doubt you’ll have any left over, but if you do, these cinnamon donut muffins freeze beautifully.

We have actually had these before and we loved them as much as your family does! Great breakfast or snack!
If we ever have any left over, I enjoy them as a snack, too, Cynthia.
