Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly
- 0.75 cup milk
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons cinnamon-sugar mix (optional, for topping)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or grease the cups with cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold them together with a spatula. Be careful not to overmix; stir just until no dry streaks remain.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Fill each about 3/4 of the way full.
If desired, sprinkle the top of each muffin with a pinch of cinnamon-sugar mix for an extra burst of flavor and a crunchy topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the tops are lightly golden.
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 warm or at room temperature, and enjoy the Simply Sinful Cinnamon Muffins with a cup of coffee or tea!
