I woke up Sunday with a craving for cinnamon rolls. Maybe it was the snow, maybe it was the Christmas spirit, maybe it was residual visions of all the goodies at Faneuil Hall from the night before, but whatever the cause, I wanted something cinnamon-y.
I ignored my craving and sat down with a cup of coffee and read the morning blogs. And what did I find? Norma going on and on and ON about cinnamon. She linked to Pioneer Woman and her cinnamon rolls. I checked out the recipe but, quickly (and sadly) realized that I didn’t have all the ingredients.
All was not lost, however, because Pioneer Woman’s most recent post was the recipe for French Breakfast Puffs. Sure enough, I had all the ingredients. And they sounded so absolutely decadent and delicious and cinnamon-y that I just had to head right into the kitchen and make them.
Don’t they look just like the ones on Pioneer Woman’s page? Yup, they sure do.
And what better way to reward a hungry, cold and wet husband than with a fresh-and-hot-out-of-the-oven-cinnamon-muffin?
He approved. You will, too, I promise.
Makes me want to stay home from work today and make some. Yummy!
yeah i saw those and they looked yummy. none for me unfortunately.
They DO look just like Pioneer Woman’s, I followed that link also and just made myself at home over there… TONS of recipes for all kinds of goodies… Carole,I LOVE your studio room!
Yay! Ohhhh, now I want one of those muffins!!!
I wanted to try those in the worst way, but I knew I eat them all. Yours do look as good as PW’s do!
Yum! I may just try those for Christmas morning.
Those muffins look so good….
I love those. We call them Snickerdoodle Muffins!
Hmm, snickerdoodles might be what I need…
I saw that recipes and immediately saved it! It’s nice to see another rave review. Now I shall have to make them.
Carole also gave some of these muffins to my husband, Randy, and our father-in-law Jack. Randy brought one home and I ate it (before he could). It was really, really good. I’ve never had a muffin with cinnamon and sugar on the sides and bottom, too. “Where did you get this?” I asked him. I should have known. You find the best recipes, Carole!
Your sister-in-law,
Mary

They look absolutely delicious!! Much better than the bowl of cereal I ate as I read this post!!
Oh my gosh – they look so good! Methinks I might have to try these soon.
I just checked out the Pioneer Woman site. Lots of goodies on there – thanks for the link!
I want one. Right now!! They look delicious!
I love the pioneer woman’s recipes, (Try her mashed potatoes!) I meant to make these puffs over the weekend by got sidetracked by cookies and pralines. I’m definitely making them this week though.. definitely!
Oh YUM.
Don’t you just love her blog?! Her post on the calf roping had me on the floor…must try those cinnamon things!
They do look yummy!
Yum! Those pictures make me want to go home and bake again.
Oooh, yum. I usually have all those ingredients around – I’ll have to remember that next time I’m in the mood to bake something for breakfast!
I’m a cinnamon fan all year round. Those look delicious!
Hmmmm, yummy! I’ll have to give those a try soon.
They look VERY good….I will have to go check the recipe out 🙂
Damnitall Carole! As if I didn’t have enough recipe blogs to read. Now you bring me this one! Resistance is futile.
They look so yummy, my arteries are clogging just looking at them! 🙂
Boy she makes the yummiest looking food. I try not to read her blog when I am hungry.
You’re wicked! How did I not know about this blog? I just gained 10 lbs!
I started reading PW after Norma linked to her, but I have steadfastly refused to read her recipes. Steadfastly, I tell you. So far…
Those look very tasty!
Yeah, I’m with Margene… I would make them, but then I’d end up eating ALL of them, so I didn’t .
they do look mahhvelous though.
Those look great, Carole!
(growwwwwl)
They look good and it looks like he approves of them. He deserved something for going out there and shoveling all of that snow.
Yum! And such a nice photo of Dale looking appreciative!
those look really good! i love cinnamon anything. maybe i’ll try these for Christmas morning. 🙂
Yummmm, I don’t have to weigh in at WW for 2 weeks…uh oh, I’m in trouble!
Those look so yummy!
YUM. I LOVE Pioneer Woman. It’s like food porn.
Those look seriously delicious!
Can ya mail me a few? 🙂
I don’t think I commented on this yesterday. I was too busy drooling…and printing off the recipe!
Oh my. One more blog to add to my feed reader-those look divine! I think I will skip my walk this morning and bake instead…
