Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.75 cups Whole milk
- 2 units Large eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Pecans (chopped)
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter (softened)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt. Stir until well blended.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together using a spatula. Be careful not to overmix. The batter might be slightly lumpy, and that's OK.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
To make the praline topping, mix the chopped pecans, brown sugar, and softened butter in a small bowl until crumbly and combined.
Sprinkle about a tablespoon of the praline mixture on top of each muffin.
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center 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 and enjoy the warm, nutty, and cinnamon-spiced muffins with your favorite coffee or tea!
