Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.75 cups milk
- 0.5 cups vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 0.75 cups chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter.
Fold the chopped nuts into the batter gently to ensure even distribution.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with brown sugar for a sweet and slightly crunchy topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
