Categories     Dessert

Time 25m

Yield 28-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

250 g self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
100 g caster sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
200 ml skim milk
1/4 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
75 g brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat fanforced oven to 180 Celcius.
  • Grease a 12 mini muffin tin.
  • For the cinnamon sugar, mix together the cinnamon and the light brown sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the mini muffins, mix the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl or jug, mix together the egg, milk and melted butter.
  • Add the wet ingredients all at once to the dry ingredients and mix briefly until just combined.
  • Put a 1/2 teaspoon of the batter into each prepared mini muffin cup. Sprinkle each muffin with a 1/4 tsp of cinnamon sugar, then spoon some more batter and cinnamon sugar into the mini muffin cup.
  • Finish with a layer of batter, dividing it evenly. Using a fine skewer, swirl the mixture in each mini muffin cup to achieve the marbled effect.
  • Bake in the oven for 12-15 mins, or until risen and golden. Cool in the tin for 10 minutes (the sugar mixture will remain really hot, so don't be tempted to try them sooner), then turn out onto a wire rack.
  • Serve warm or cold. These can be frozen too!

Tips:

  • For a moist and fluffy muffin, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy before adding the eggs. This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a muffin that is light and airy.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in a tough muffin. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use fresh baking powder and baking soda. Old baking powder and baking soda will not react properly and can result in a flat muffin.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly without overflowing the cups.
  • Bake the muffins at a moderate temperature (350 degrees F) for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Check often to make sure they do not burn
  • For the cinnamon butter, use unsalted butter and soften it to room temperature before mixing in the cinnamon and sugar. This will make it easier to spread and will help the cinnamon and sugar to adhere to the butter.
  • Serve the cinnamon muffins warm with cinnamon butter for a delicious and satisfying breakfast or snack.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon mini muffins and cinnamon butter are a classic combination that is sure to please everyone. These muffins are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their moist and fluffy texture, sweet cinnamon flavor, and creamy cinnamon butter, these muffins are a perfect treat for any occasion.
