Ingredients

1. Muffin Base

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (240g)

  • ½ cup granulated sugar (100g)

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • ½ tsp baking soda

  • ½ tsp salt

  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup buttermilk (240ml) (or use regular milk with 1 tbsp vinegar if you don’t have buttermilk)

  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted (75g)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

2. Cinnamon Sugar Filling

  • 1/3 cup brown sugar, packed (70g)

  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (30g)

3. Icing

  • 1 cup powdered sugar (120g)

  • 2 tbsp milk (30ml)

  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

πŸ”Ή Step 1: Prepare the Muffin Batter

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.

  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir with a spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. The batter should be thick but moist.

πŸ”Ή Step 2: Make the Cinnamon Sugar Filling

  1. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon.

  2. Drizzle the melted butter into the mixture and stir until it forms a thick, crumbly texture. Set aside.

πŸ”Ή Step 3: Assemble the Muffins

  1. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of muffin batter into each muffin cup, spreading it evenly across the bottom.

  2. Add a generous teaspoon of the cinnamon sugar filling on top of the batter, then cover with another heaping spoonful of muffin batter.

  3. Use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the cinnamon sugar into the muffin batter, creating a marbled effect.

πŸ”Ή Step 4: Bake the Muffins

  1. Bake the muffins for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

  2. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

πŸ”Ή Step 5: Make the Icing

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. If the icing is too thick, add more milk, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches your desired consistency.

  2. Drizzle the icing over the cooled muffins for a sweet, finishing touch.

Tips for the Perfect Cinnamon Roll Muffins

  • For extra flavor, you can add chopped nuts, such as pecans or walnuts, to the cinnamon sugar filling.

  • If you prefer a thicker icing, reduce the amount of milk. You can also make the icing ahead of time and store it in the fridge.

  • If you don’t have buttermilk, you can use regular milk with a tablespoon of vinegar to create a similar tangy flavor.

Calories (estimated)

  • 1 muffin: ~250-300 kcal (depending on the amount of icing and sugar used)

Energy-Efficient Tips

  • Use a hand whisk to mix the wet ingredients to save energy.

  • Consider making a double batch of muffins and freezing half to save time in the future.
