My favorite would have to be Kepler 442b. It is 1.38 earth radius, 260k surface temperature...Very likely to be like our world in temperature + in make up.

My runner up is kepler 186f that is about the same if not slightly smaller. Chances are with it being larger than the earth that it would have a slightly thicker atmosphere would end up being about as warm as earth.

With 4,994 to choose from picking one is difficult. :)I'd have to say though the first one discovered back in 1991 would be my fave. Pegasus-51.
