Equipment

Ingredients

  • non-stick baking spray with flour

FOR THE CINNAMON BROWN SUGAR:

  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

FOR THE MUFFINS:

  • 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1⅓ cups buttermilk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350° and lightly spray a standard muffin tin with non-stick baking spray with flour.

MAKE THIS CINNAMON BROWN SUGAR:

  • In a small bowl, measure and add the cinnamon and brown sugar. Whisk or stir to combine, breaking up any clumps. Set aside.

MAKE THE MUFFINS:

  • In a mixing bowl measure and add the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk to combine.
  • In a liquid measuring cup, measure the buttermilk and add in the eggs and vanilla. Whisk well until combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just about combined. Lastly Pour in the melted (and slightly cooled) unsalted butter.
  • Measure 2 tablespoons of the batter and add it into greased muffin cup. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the cinnamon brown sugar over top. Divide the remaining batter over top of each muffin (about 1½ tablespoons).
  • Starting in the center, use a toothpick or skewer and swirl the batter outwards. Sprinkle with a little more cinnamon brown sugar over top if desired.
  • Slide the pan onto the middle rack of your preheated oven and bake for 12-14 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean after inserted into the middle.
