Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 2 units large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with muffin liners or lightly grease it.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing gently with a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be just combined and slightly lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon for the topping. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the tops of the muffin batter.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
