This turned out really good. I added a banana and cranraisens to the mixture and a lot more cinnamon... because i'm a cinnamon junkie, lol! I actually had no baking soda in the cupboard so I doubled up on the baking powder, and it still came out fantastic.. I was worried with all the wet ingredients that the muffin might not turn out light and fluffy, but it actually was just right and went really well with my coffee. My family also enjoyed them- Bonus! I'll definitely make this again as it was a great recipe to follow.
