Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 0.5 cups Maple syrup
- 0.25 cups Brown sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Milk
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the tin lightly.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter with a hand or stand mixer until light and fluffy.
Add the maple syrup and brown sugar to the butter, mixing until smooth and well-combined.
Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, 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 muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the muffins warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
