These muffns are delicious, and they also freeze very well. Just be sure they are not underdone or they will get greasy. And you must use a LARGE mixing bowl since it makes such a huge batch. One of my family's favorites. – Anonymous Review
I have been making this recipe for years, but misplaced my recipe file in a recent move.. Still unpacking.. I was happy to find it on the Yankee Magazine web site. I found this recipe in a Yankee magazine years ago.. The Best Morning Glory recipe from the East to the West coast. I think its the original. Because it was named after the "Morning Glory" recipe in a small town in New Hampshire. Everyone I serve them to, loved them. Makes a big batch. I cool them on a paper towel as it absorbs some of the oil. Freeze well. Eat very well..Mickey from California. (a Yankee subscriber) – Reviewed by R. Monique Bewley
I lost this recipe several years ago. I was very glad to find it online, it is delicious. I made these for our gourmet group mountain-weekend-away breakfast, froze them and then reheated them the next morning. A 5-hat review was given by everyone. 10 of us ate all 36 muffins. – Anonymous Review
This is a recipe that I had lost. It was a recipe that my family absolutely loved. I could make the large batch and freeze some. The kids always had a great snack on hand. I was very unhappy that I had lost the recipe and was so happy when I saw it listed here. Many thanks! – Reviewed by carol martin
