Ingredients
  

Muffins

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cream of tarter
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/2 tsp salt I like himalayan
  • 1 1/4 cups milk
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla I use good quality or homemade vanilla

Cinnamon & Sugar Topping

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Prepare a 12-slot muffin tin by spraying well with cooking spray.
  • Prepare cinnamon & sugar mix, and set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, cream of tarter, and nutmeg, whisking until well combined.
  • In a smaller bowl, combined melted butter, milk, vanilla, and the egg, and whisk until well combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix with a spoon or spatula, until just combined. Don't over-mix the batter. Over-mixing could result in the muffins drying out faster.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the 12 prepared muffin slots(roughly 3/4 full).
  • Sprinkle cinnamon & sugar mix onto each muffin, about 1tsp per muffin.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5-10 minutes, then move them to a cooling rack. Pulling them out of the tin too soon, could make them fall apart.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

These muffins are amazing while still hot. Cut them in half and butter them, you'll thoroughly enjoy them. They're also great cooled or refrigerated.
 
Store muffins in a gallon zip-lock on the counter, or in the refrigerator.
