Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar for coating
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon for coating
  • whipped cream optional, for serving
  • powdered sugar optional, for serving
  • fresh berries optional, for serving
  • maple syrup optional, for serving
  • chopped nuts optional, for serving

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, eggs, ground nutmeg, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
  • Evenly divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a shallow dish, mix together 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon. While the muffins are still warm, dip the tops into the cinnamon sugar mixture, pressing gently to ensure it adheres well.
  • Return the muffins to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes to crisp the tops. Watch them closely to prevent overbaking.

Notes

For an extra indulgent treat, try serving these muffins with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of whipped cream. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
