These are soft, tender muffins with a French-toast-style interior and a buttery cinnamon-sugar coating. The recipe below completes the ingredients shown in your picture and gives you the likely preparation method.
Ingredients
Muffins
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cinnamon-Sugar Coating
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
- Mix the dry ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. - Mix the wet ingredients:
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla. - Combine:
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently just until combined. Don’t overmix—a few small lumps are fine. - Fill the muffin tin:
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about ⅔–¾ full. - Bake:
Bake for approximately 18–22 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - Make the coating:
While the muffins bake, combine the ½ cup sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. - Coat the muffins:
Let the muffins cool for about 5 minutes. Brush or dip each muffin in melted butter, then roll generously in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. - Serve:
Enjoy them warm, when the outside is crisp and sugary while the inside remains soft and fluffy.
⭐ Tip
For an especially French-toast-like flavor, use slightly more cinnamon and vanilla in the batter and serve the muffins warm with maple syrup.
