🍥 Cinnamon Roll Muffins

🧁 Instructions

1. Preheat oven

Preheat to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease it lightly.


2. Make the muffin batter

  1. In a bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In another bowl, mix milk, egg, oil (or butter), and vanilla extract.
  3. Combine wet and dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined — don’t overmix.

3. Prepare the cinnamon filling

In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter until smooth.


4. Layer and swirl

  1. Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter.
  2. Add about ½ teaspoon of cinnamon filling on top and gently swirl with a toothpick.
  3. Add another spoonful of batter to cover, then top with a small drizzle of cinnamon filling and swirl again.

5. Bake

Bake for 18–22 minutes, until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.


6. Glaze

  1. Whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
  2. Drizzle over warm muffins for that perfect cinnamon roll finish.

💡 Tips

  • For richer muffins, use buttermilk instead of regular milk.
  • Add chopped pecans or walnuts to the filling for a little crunch.
  • You can double the glaze for extra gooey sweetness!
