I just made these donut muffins with the jam on the inside. They turned out chewy after being baked for longer than the original recipe, and I was just wondering, what did I do wrong? Of course, it was probably my own doing, since the other comments found this recipe fabulous :). First, I had to leave the batter out at room temperature overnight, then I put too much sugar on which ended up making a hard 'plate' of candy on top, and I alternated between the sides of the pan, since I have an old school oven. The fire only heats the right side fully, so I have to turn the pan every once in a while. I did turned it 4 times in the span of 30 minutes. I followed the recipe to a tee, and as nice as my family is, I can tell when a batch is a dud. It reminded me a little of oatmeal cooked too much. So, what did I do wrong?

I made these this weekend since I have oddly been craving donuts and used the extras for a quick on the go breakfasts this week. Very tasty, and taste even better knowing that they are low calorie.

When I make them, they do not come out looking "glazed", they just look kind of "sugary". However, if you want a glazed look on your muffins without too many additional calories, you can simply brush them with milk or egg white before you sprinkle on the topping. FYI for you donut lovers - the glaze that typically comes on real, storebought donuts (what you picture when someone says "glazed donut") is nothing more than a powdered sugar and heavy cream concoction - something I wouldn't recommend if your watching your calories!!

Most important of all is that my family gave them two thumbs up. They were filling and satisfying as breakfast or an afternoon snack. The picture of your donut muffins looked like the sugar cinnamon topping made a nice glaze. My muffins didn't get that glaze. How did you do that? I will be making this recipe again. I am thinking of making them on the weekend and bagging and freezing in individual serving sizes for quick breakfast or snacks during the busy work week. These muffins were easy and tasty.
