Buttermilk Spice Muffins

I'm almost halfway through my first attempt at NaBloPoMo and here I am, at 10:30 PM finally posting for today. That still counts, right? I hope so. This one is going to be short and sweet.

I do mean sweet too. When my in-laws are visiting in town we sometimes go to Mimi's Cafe for lunch and my SIL and nephew always order the Buttermilk Spice Muffins. They are huge jumbo muffins, that, for some reason, the Mimi's here seem to always over bake. Which is why I haven't ordered one. I was curious though and wondered what they were like. When Ms. Peabody herself then posted about her love for the exact same muffins I knew they must be something really good.

I set out to make them, and I have to tell you, they are pretty fantastic. I absolutely loved them. I think that I may do the topping a bit differently than just the sprinkled sugar/cinnamon on top next time, but I can tell you I will come back to this recipe again and again.

I also wanted to take a minute to tell you all about a giveaway that Susan is having over at DoughMessTic that you should check out - it is for a great Emile Henry Pie Dish.
