Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be just combined.
Gently fold in the diced plums until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
Sprinkle the top of each muffin with a light pinch of brown sugar for added sweetness and a subtle crunch.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 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 the muffins warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
