Ingredients

  • MUFFINS
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
  • 1/2 cup warm milk

  • CINNAMON SUGAR TOPPING
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar

How To Make cinnamon muffins

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a 12 count standard-size muffin pan with paper liners.
  • Step 2
    Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Step 3
    Combine the sugar, brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, milk, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix just until combined. Using a three-tablespoon scoop, load the muffin cups, dividing evenly.
  • Step 4
    Make the cinnamon topping by combining the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in a medium bowl and cutting in the butter with a pastry blender until small crumbs form. Sprinkle the cinnamon topping evenly over the muffin cups.
  • Step 5
    Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before removing them to a wire cooling rack.
