Cinnamon Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients

For the muffins
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup plain yogurt (not non-fat)
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
4 -6 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
For the topping
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line standard muffin tin with paper cups, or grease thoroughly.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, yogurt, brown sugar, oil, vanilla, and cinnamon (if using).
Carefully add flour mixture, blending just until moistened. (Resist the urge to over-mix! Batter is not suppose to be smooth).
Divide batter among the muffin cups. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in one of the muffins comes out clean.
While the muffins are backing, melt the butter in a small bowl. In a separate small, shallow bowl, combine white sugar and cinnamon.
As soon as the muffins are finished baking, dip them one at a time into the melted butter. Roll (if using paper muffin cups: dip) them in the cinnamon sugar mixture, then set on a rack to cool.
Enjoy!
