The "flour" for these is Bisquick, and I don't believe there was enough spice coming through. I would make one or more of the following three changes:
1. Use cinnamon applesauce
2. Use more cinnamon
3. Use a little more sugar
I believe one or all of these changes would have been powerful enough to overcome the blandness of the Bisquick. The warm butter and cinnamon sugar on the top was da bomb! I wanted the rest of the cupcake to taste that good.
Hope that is helpful. I will definitely try these again and experiment. Warming them in the microwave the next day was definitely awesome. These are a cupcake that is more muffin-like, and warm is definitely the way to go!

Good to know. Did you eat the whole batch for experimentation?
Hee, hee. No. We each had one (I had two or three) and the rest went to the Holbrooks. That's the first family the girls chose. Next week, we'll choose someone else.
