Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

Muffins
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 eggs
1 cup milk
2/3 cup packed brown sugar
6 tablespoons 3/4 stick unsalted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Topping
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

Heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease or line your mini muffin pans..
In a large bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
Melt the butter (I nuke it in a microwave-safe bowl for about 30 seconds on medium heat).
In a separate medium bowl, beat together the eggs, brown sugar, milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
Pour the wet ingredients over the flour mixture, and mix just until incorporated; do not overmix.
Scoop the batter by tablespoonful into the mini muffin cups (or, if you're making normal-size muffins, divide the batter between 12 cups).
In a small bowl, mix together the 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.
Sprinkle the top of each muffin with a bit of the cinnamon mix, dividing the topping evenly among the muffins.
Bake for about 10-12 minutes, until muffin tops spring back when you lightly poke the top (or stick a toothpick in and it comes out clean). If you're making standard-size muffins, increase the baking time to about 12 - 15 minutes.
Let cool for five minutes and serve.
