Cinnamon Muffins

 

I’m sorry to say that I’ve been sick for the past several days so there’s no Tuesdays-with-Dorie [TwD] post from me this week. Whatever severe cold / flu bug that’s been going around finally caught up with me… grabbed my collar from behind as I was trying to outrun it, threw me down on the ground and mightily proclaimed “HA!  You are mine!“.  So, yes, there’s been no baking going on lately.  But I did want to post something that I made a short while back.  These cinnamon muffins are so moist, so tasty, so delicious that I wanted to share them with you.  They’re great with breakfast, for breakfast or even as an anytime snack.

 

Moist -&- Delicious Cinnamon Muffins

 

Yields 12 muffins


Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vanilla sugar
1/4 cup Lyle’s Golden Syrup (or an additional 1/4 cup sugar)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground cinnamon
1 egg
3/4 cup milk
1/3 cup butter flavored shortening (or melted butter, but this will result in a drier muffin)

Melted butter and cinnamon sugar mixture for topping


Method

Preheat oven to 400F and spray 12 muffin tins with Baking Spray
In a large bowl using a whisk combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg and cinnamon. Add in the egg, milk, shortening (or butter) and combine until the ingredients are combined. The batter will be rather thick. Spoon into prepared muffin tins filling each approx 2/3 full.  Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until done.  Remove muffins to cooling rack, brush with melted butter and roll tops in cinnamon sugar.
 

Have a delicious day!

    Great to hear from you! I was worried since I didn’t see a post. I made the Red Velvet Cake and cupcakes based on your recipe and also used the recipe for Cream Cheese Icing. It turned out great. Hope you get well soon.
