Thanks for sharing. GREAT muffins. The muffin batter is very versitile. you can change up the flavorings, and/or replace the poppyseads with 1 cup drained fruit or chochlate chips. It’s the recipe we use 9/10 times to make muffins. Yummy. 🙂
BTW: I’ve tried both yogurt and also fat free sour cream with this recipe. They’ve always risen nicely. It shouldn’t matter which you use with respect to rising, since both have similar consistancies and both are also acidic. My guess was a bad batch of soda or powder in the case where the muffins didn’t rise properly.

Sub the sour cream for vanilla yogurt.

Are you saying we should do this, or is this just a suggestion that you have?

i made these and followed the recipe to a T and they didn’t really rise. i think it’s all the sour cream.
