Even if you’re not a morning person, knowing these Snickerdoodle Muffins are in the kitchen waiting for you will make you jump out of bed and put a pep in your step! Perfect with a cup of coffee!

A few of my kids aren’t big breakfast eaters. They like to be awake for awhile before eating in the morning. Now that 3 of them are in school now though, I try to have them eat at least a little something for breakfast.

Lemon Blueberry Muffins are always a hit, and now that fall is on it’s way I know we will be making this Cinnamon Apple Bread quite often. Now we have another favorite to add to the mix. These muffins disappeared almost as fast as I made them. We love all things snickerdoodle in this house! (These Soft and Chewy Snickerdoodle Bars, are on constant repeat around here, and make a great housewarming gift, too!)
Whether you have thee for breakfast or an afternoon snack, we hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
