Recently, I made a batch of cinnamon sugar muffins. I was really happy with the finished product, so I couldn’t help but snap a picture and type up the recipe. These muffins are so great if you’re looking for a nice, sugary breakfast treat. Unsurprisingly, I had mine with a cup of iced coffee and it definitely felt like the perfect pairing. I think that I actually might make another batch of these so I can freeze them and eat them for breakfast over the next several weeks.

I have to say one of the best things about this recipe is the cinnamon crumble topping. It’s the perfect balance of light and sweet. As someone who has a sweet tooth, but not an extreme one, this is just the right amount of sugar for me. If you try these out, I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients: 

• 3 tablespoons melted butter
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar (topping)
• 2 tablespoons melted butter (topping)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (topping)
• 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (topping)
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions: 

1. In an electric mixer, combine flour, baking powder, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. The additional 1/4 cup of flour for the topping should not be included in this.
2. Gradually whisk in your wet ingredients (milk, egg, melted butter) until the mixture is smooth and even. Be sure not to overmix.
3. Pour mixture into a baking tray that has been sprayed with vegetable oil.
4. Bake for 18 minutes in a 350 degree oven or until the muffins are nice and golden.
5. While the muffins are baking, combine flour, butter, cinnamon, and sugar to make your topping crumble. Sprinkle it over the top of your muffins once they have finished baking.
6. Enjoy 🙂
