Servings: 12
Ingredients
For the Muffins:
- 2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 6 Tablespoons Butter softened
- ½ cup Granulated Sugar
- ½ cup Brown Sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- ½ cup Milk
- ½ cup Sour Cream
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
- ½ teaspoon Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoon Salt
For the Topping:
- 3 Tablespoons Butter melted
- ⅓ cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and spray a standard muffin tin with a non-stick cooking spray.
- Cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar with a hand held mixer or stand up mixer until smooth and combined (2-3 minutes).
- Then mix in the eggs, milk, sour cream and vanilla extract until combined.
- Stir in the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda and salt by hand with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to over mix.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin until each one is approximately 2/3 of the way full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to sit in the tin for 5 minutes, then carefully remove the muffins and place them on a wire rack to cool.
- Melt the butter for the topping. In a separate bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon for the topping.
- Once the muffins have cooled for a few minutes, brush the melted butter on the outside of each muffin and sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar mixture on top. Make sure to get all around the muffins!
- Once the muffins have been coated, they are ready to serve and enjoy!
Notes
I don’t use cupcake liners for this recipe as I want to coat the cinnamon and sugar mixture on all sides of the muffins. Make sure to spray the tin generously with the non-stick spray so that they are easy to remove.
These muffins are best served fresh or within a few days but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. They are best microwaved for 15-20 seconds before enjoying the leftovers.
