Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the batter tender.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 of the way full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
While the muffins are baking, prepare the coating. In one bowl, melt the butter for coating. In another bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes. Then carefully remove each muffin.
While still warm, dip each muffin top into the melted butter, then roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat completely.
Allow the coated Duffins to cool on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
