Description

Cinnamon is the star of the show in this muffin. They’re light, fluffy, and melt in your mouth.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE MUFFINS:
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter, At Room Temperature
  • 2 cups Granulated Sugar, Divided
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2  Eggs
  • 2-¼ cups All-purpose Flour
  • ¾ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • ¾ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ¾ teaspoons Cream Of Tartar
  • ¾ teaspoons Freshly Grated Nutmeg
  • 1-¼ cup Sour Cream
  • 1-¼ cup Cinnamon Chips
  • 2 Tablespoons Cinnamon
  • FOR THE GLAZE:
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • ½ teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2 Tablespoons Milk

Preparation

For the muffins:
Preheat oven to 350ºF. Grease 2 muffin tins.

In the bowl of a stand mixer, add butter and 1 cup sugar. Cream for 3-5 minutes or until fluffy and pale in color. Add the vanilla. Add the eggs one a time, mixing after each addition.

In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, cream of tartar, and nutmeg. Add the flour mixture and sour cream alternately to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour. Scrape down the bowl as needed. Fold in the cinnamon chips.

In a small bowl, whisk together remaining 1 cup of sugar and tablespoons of cinnamon.

Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the batter into the cinnamon-sugar mixture and roll around to coat completely, making sure not to press your fingers into the batter while you roll. Place the coated muffins into the prepared tins.

Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pans for 5 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.

For the glaze:
In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, vanilla and milk until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the warm muffins with a spoon or a fork.

I’m torn! These are really delicious, but… they are a MESS to make. I followed the recipe exactly, except I didn’t have cinnamon chips, so I just left them out. The batter was sticky but didn’t hold the cinnamon/sugar on the outside as well as I’d hoped; I had more than half the cinn/sugar mix left after rolling all my muffins. The batter did stick really well to my fingers though, and anything utensils it touched! I sprinkled some of the leftover cinn/sugar mix on top of the muffins. They cooked perfectly in 22 mins. But when I took the pan out of the oven, I noticed that the cinn/sugar “crust” had dried up and pieces of it fell off the muffins. These were a pain to get out of the pan too; they are light and fluffy to taste, but that means they don’t have the strength of regular muffins and they crumbled very easily.
So, yes, these were light and fluffy and sweet and delicious, especially once the glaze went on. But will I make them again? Maybe… but only after I’ve forgotten how messy they are!

I made these last night and they are fantastic! I didn’t have enough sour cream for the whole recipe so I used half sour cream and half apple sauce and they were really good. I’ll definitely make these again.
