Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it with butter.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Whisk well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spatula or spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be lumpy.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and additional ground cinnamon for the topping.
Sprinkle a generous amount of the cinnamon-sugar mixture over each muffin, ensuring the tops are well covered.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. They can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
