Description

Fluffy, oven‑baked donut‑style muffins coated in warm cinnamon sugar—perfect for sweet mornings with minimal fuss!


Ingredients

Scale

1 ½ cups all‑purpose flour

½ cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 large egg

½ cup milk

¼ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C) and prep muffin tin.

2. In a bowl, whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.

3. In another bowl, whisk egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla.

4. Fold wet into dry until just combined.

5. Spoon batter into muffin tin, about ¾ full.

6. Bake 15–18 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.

7. Brush warm muffins with butter and toss in cinnamon‑sugar mixture.

Notes

Don’t overmix batter—fold gently for airy muffins.

Measure flour properly by spooning and leveling.

Coat muffins while still warm for best sugar adhesion.

You can prepare the dry mix ahead for speedy mornings.
