Thanksgiving Honey Muffins

I found this recipe in a holiday Taste of Home edition and they seemed so good and I’m glad I bookmarked it because these things are fabulous! I have been making them for two Thanksgivings in a row and I was just reminded today how much I loved them You can taste just a hint of honey but it also seems to taste a little like cornbread (without the corn of course), which could mean one less thing going on and out of you’re oven next Thanksgiving. Also, these things a quick to make; prep time only takes about 10 minutes. Usually I take forever when baking things because I don't measure things in advance I just go with the flow and today I was shocked at how quickly these things took to prepare.

I ended up hading two today, even when I was stuffed with turkey and potatoes and whatnot, and I think I may have a third later on today ;). Seriously, make these; they are just that amazing!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I baked these early in the morning, that way the turkey

could have the oven for the rest of the day

a little toasty on the sides, but otherwise great!

and you can barely see the little flecks of honey that

didn't get incorperated all the way...mmm yum!
