Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Fresh figs, diced
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly with cooking spray.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar and eggs. Whisk until the mixture is light and slightly fluffy.
Add the milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract to the sugar and egg mixture. Whisk until smooth.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Gently fold in the diced figs and nuts (if using), ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Bake 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 any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
