Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 cups whole milk
- 0.33 cups unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large eggs
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups fruit jelly or jam (your choice)
- 0.25 cups unsalted butter (melted, for topping)
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar (for topping)
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease or line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
In another bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fill each muffin cup about 1/3 full with the batter. Add about 1 teaspoon of fruit jelly or jam to the center of each cup, then cover with more batter until the cups are about 2/3 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the tops are set and lightly golden. A toothpick inserted near the edge should come out clean (avoid poking it into the jelly).
While the muffins bake, mix the topping sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Place the melted butter for the topping in another bowl.
Once the muffins are done baking, let them cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then carefully remove them.
While the muffins are still warm, dip the tops into the melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat.
Allow the muffins to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
