Doughnut Muffins

Its nice to start off a weekend with something fresh and sweet(it would be ideal if its less time consuming...)This recipe uses only the basic baking ingredients and nothing extra...In general, baking is simple but the skill requires lot more trials.. Baking method has to be followed very strict to get the final perfect result in softness, flavor, taste and tenderness. though I'm not very good at taking pictures...it tasted very good and off all, our little judge made his judgement favoring us....
