Amazing Friendly Cinnamon Muffins

Ingredients:

For the Muffins:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Sugar Topping:

• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
5. In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the topping.
6. Scoop the muffin batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
7. Sprinkle a generous amount of the cinnamon sugar topping over each muffin.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Enjoy your amazing friendly cinnamon muffins with a cup of tea or coffee!
