Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Raisins
- 0.5 cups Caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fold in the raisins to distribute them evenly throughout the batter.
Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full to allow room for rising.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the muffins are cooled, carefully drizzle the caramel sauce over the top of each muffin. Use a spoon for precision or pour the caramel into a small piping bag for a neater finish.
Let the caramel set for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Caramel Topped Raisin Cupcake Muffins!
