Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 cups milk
- 0.5 cups powdered sugar (for optional dusting or frosting)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy (approximately 2-3 minutes).
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture in three additions, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Dust the cooled cupcakes with powdered sugar or frost them with your favorite frosting, if desired. Serve and enjoy!
