Description

These homemade cinnamon muffins are the ultimate comfort food, featuring a soft, cake-like crumb infused with warm spices. The secret lies in the generous cinnamon-sugar topping that creates a delightful crackly crust as they bake. Made with simple pantry staples like flour, egg beaters, and vegetable oil, these muffins come together in minutes. They are wonderfully moist and not overly sweet, making them a versatile choice for pairing with coffee, tea, or milk. Ideal for weekend brunches, school lunches, or a quick treat on busy mornings, these muffins capture the essence of a bakery favorite right in your own kitchen. The aroma alone will fill your home with inviting warmth, promising a delicious start to any day.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC). Grease a 6-cup muffin tin or line with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt to ensure a light texture.
  3. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg beaters, water, vegetable oil, and 2 tablespoons of the sugar until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently with a spoon or spatula until just moistened; do not overmix, as the batter should remain lumpy.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. In a small dish, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of sugar with the cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the top of each muffin.
  7. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the centers spring back when gently pressed with a finger.
  8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
