Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- ¾ cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease thoroughly.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
-
Create Batter: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Avoid overmixing; batter will be slightly lumpy.
-
Fill Muffin Cups: Divide batter evenly into muffin cups, filling about ¾ full.
-
Bake Muffins: Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Cool Slightly: Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
-
Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Topping: In a bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar. In a separate bowl, have your melted butter ready.
-
Coat Muffins: Dip each muffin top into melted butter, then immediately roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat generously.
-
Serve: Enjoy muffins warm or cooled completely.
Notes
- Do Not Overmix: Stirring just until ingredients are combined ensures muffins stay tender and fluffy.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Using room-temperature eggs and milk results in better muffin texture.
- Freshness Tip: Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Extra Flavor: Add chopped nuts, raisins, or mini chocolate chips to the batter for variety.
