Tried and Truesday: Donut Miffins

So, I don't know about you, but I have about a bajillion pins on Pinterest. If I was the person my Pinterest boards reflected, I would be...the best. So, in an effort to become a little more like my alter ego, I'm buckling down and accomplishing something - and you're going to help! Here's what I'm thinking: What if we have a Pinterest party every Tuesday? I'll share something "tried and true" from my Pinterest boards - a recipe, outfit, DIY, etc - and YOU can do the same by leaving a link in the comments. Sound good? Let's go!

So, it's not best picture because it was a late night snack attack, but let me assure you, they're pretty much delicious! I followed the recipe almost exactly with a few exceptions...
 
1. I don't have a doughnut pan so I made muffins instead, but it worked just as well with the same temp, time, and everything.
 
2. I didn't have any nutmeg on hand, so I used Pumpkin Pie Spice instead. Also, because I put Pumpkin Pie Spice on everything.
 
3.  Just for giggles, since they are supposed to be doughnut-y, I glazed them with a simple mixture of powdered sugar and milk instead. However, I'm pretty confident that butter and cinnamon sugar would be terrific.
 
So there you have it, enjoy!
