FRENCH BREAKFAST PUFFS
I just discovered this in Betty Crocker's baking classics. This should be illegal. It's a cross between a donut, a muffin, and cinnamon toast. I used butter, and I rolled the entire thing (top, bottom, and sides) in butter and in cinnamon sugar when it came out of the oven. This is way too simple to make and way too delicious. This is dessert to me...I wouldn't make it for breakfast, but it's good no matter what.

Tips:
- Use a food processor. This is the easiest way to achieve the desired consistency for the batter.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the puffs tough.
- Let the batter rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the batter to thicken and rise.
- Cook the puffs over medium heat. Cooking them over high heat will make them brown too quickly and the insides will be undercooked.
- Flip the puffs frequently while cooking. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Serve the puffs immediately. They are best enjoyed when they are hot and fluffy.
