Best Maple Cinnamon Muffins Recipes

LOW-FAT MAPLE CINNAMON MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven 400F, and grease muffin cups.
• Mix all dry ingredients, set aside.
• Beat egg, and mix with all wet ingredients.
• Make a well in dry ingredients, and add wet ingredients all at once.
• Mix JUST UNTIL COMBINED. Any more and the muffins will be tough.
• Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full. Top with chopped pecans and brown sugar.
• Bake 18-20 minutes, depending on size. Drizzle with maple syrup and enjoy!
• NOTE : 1 3/4 cups flour may be better than 2 cups (for the 'toughness') -- so you may want to try that!

MAPLE PUMPKIN OAT MUFFINS WITH CINNAMON-MAPLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Line 12 standard (1/3 cup) muffin cups with cupcake liners.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and nutmeg.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, pumpkin, maple syrup, brown sugar, oil, egg, and vanilla.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, and whisk just until the ingredients are well incorporated. Try not to overmix!
• Divide batter between the 12 muffins cups.
• Bake for about 22 - 25 minutes, until the top of the muffins spring back when poked and a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the muffins comes out clean. Angels may sing, too. Okay, I'm kidding about that last one.
• Move muffins to a wire rack on top of a couple of paper towels (helps with clean-up) and allow to cool for 10 - 15 minutes.
• Mix up the glaze - whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, syrup, and milk until smooth and shiny.
• With a spoon, drizzle the glaze over the tops of the muffins.

APPLE CINNAMON MAPLE STREUSEL MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350˚ F. Line the wells of two muffin pans with paper liners (about 18 liners total). Set aside. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Mix lightly with a fork to blend. Stir in the oats. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter and sugar until light and smooth, 1-2 minutes. Beat in the applesauce, eggs and vanilla extract until incorporated. With the mixer on low speed, mix in the dry ingredients in three additions alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients and beating just until incorporated. Fold in the butterscotch chips and apples with a rubber spatula. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, syrup, and brown sugar until combined. It will likely be thick and clumpy but that's what you want. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared muffin cups (a large cookie/ice cream scoop works great for this). If desired, divide the streusel topping between each muffin cup. Bake about 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
