Cinnamon Sugar Muffins taste just like a donut, but are baked and much easier to make.

Yes, a donut and you can make them at home in no time at all. You don’t even need a mixer, just two bowls a muffin tin, fork and the ingredients. These would be perfect to make for kids on Saturday morning after a sleep over or for Sunday brunch. They will last for a 2-3 days covered on the counter, or a week in the refrigerator and re-heated, gently. They are best the day they are made.
