Description

Deliciously fluffy muffins coated in cinnamon sugar that are perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the cinnamon sugar coating:
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (for brushing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, mix the melted butter, egg, buttermilk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. While the muffins are baking, prepare the cinnamon sugar coating by mixing the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  8. Once the muffins are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes.
  9. Brush each muffin with melted butter and roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
  10. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • For a lighter version, substitute half of the all-purpose flour with whole wheat flour.
  • For a fun twist, add chocolate chips or chopped nuts to the batter before baking.
