These are FABULOUS!!!! I suggest you use a larger muffin pan, the small are way too small. You should also get 1 1/2 dozen out of it. I will certainly add this recipe to my rotation.

While we did enjoy these, I too had the same issue with using a regular muffin pan as the recipe states. After I made them and scanned the comments to see what I did wrong, I saw one of the commenters used a jumbo cupcakes/muffin pan and got the results they expected. Almost all of mine bubbled over and some of them sank in the middle. They looked pretty ugly. That being said, their ugliness didn't diminish their taste, but I didn't want to show them off like I usually do. Then my husband took them to work without my knowledge (I was mortified and he said they were gone in 30 minutes. I guess they were a success, but I can't get excited about making them again.

Loved these! Tasted just like the ones we took home from Restaurant Gary Danko in San Francisco. I, too, experienced the problem with way too much batter and cakes that ran over. I ended up making 18, but still too mucn. Next time, I will make 24.

wonderful recipe. unbelieveable flavor and moistness. Didn't have cake flour used all purpose at the same amount. Will do it again but put less batter in muffin tin, mine also spewed out all over the top.

Didn't have cake flour, so used a mix of Whole Wheat and All-Purpose Flour minus the 3 Tbsp. They turned out light and fluffy. Several mentioned the portion size. If you have a jumbo cupcake pan, it will yield 12 cakes. I filled mine a little over 3/4 and yielded 18 cakes.

Serving recommendation: make a side of salted caramel for serving. This will help balance the sweetness ;

These were so good! They take a little bit of effort but are very worth it... They are not overly sweet but perfect for breakfast. I used brown sugar as a substitute for some white sugar. I will be making these again soon!

Loved the flavor, so yummy! I'm wondering about the "mini cake" reference. I also had enough batter for 2 dozen muffins, which explode with a TBS of cream in each. Wondering if I should have known that a restaraunt would have a jumbo muffin tin? I will try again with either a bigger muffin tin, less cream in the middle of regular muffins, or even maybe a mini loaf pan with 2 shots of cream cheese the middle. (Also, I had to substitute the bread flour with a flour-corn starch mixture. Will make sure I have bread flour for the next batch.

These cakes (muffins were good, but not great. They are just basically banana bread with an unremarkable filling. Also, this recipe makes more than enough batter for two dozen muffins, not one dozen as the recipe states.
