Ingredients

Scale

For the Muffins:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Sugar Coating:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

Step1: Preheat & Prepare

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Grease a mini muffin tin with butter or cooking spray.

Step2: Mix Dry Ingredients

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

Step3: Combine Wet Ingredients

  • In another bowl, whisk milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.

Step4: Mix Batter

  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  • Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step5: Fill Muffin Tin

  • Spoon the batter into the mini muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.

Step6: Bake the Muffins

  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the muffins turn golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Step7: Cool the Muffins

  • Let the muffins cool for a few minutes before removing them from the tin.

Step8: Coat with Cinnamon Sugar

  • Dip each muffin in melted butter, ensuring full coverage.
  • Roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.

Step9: Serve & Enjoy

  • Serve warm and enjoy these fluffy, cinnamon sugar-covered delights!

Equipment

Notes

  • Don’t overmix: Overmixing can make the muffins dense instead of light and fluffy.
  • Use room temperature ingredients: This helps everything mix together evenly.
  • For extra flavor: Add 1/2 tsp of nutmeg or a pinch of cardamom for a deeper spice flavor.
  • Make them dairy-free: Swap out the milk for almond milk and use a dairy-free butter alternative.
