This is a favourite with the grandkiddies and me too! For a change in pace, add cinnamon to the butter/sugar mix for rolling. Also, thinking you could add a dollop of your favourite jam before completely filling the cup (havent tried that yet).

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup milk (low fat is fine)
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
2 tsp baking power
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
2 tbsp melted butter, for dipping
1/2 cup sugar, for rolling
1 tbsp cinnamon, for rolling

Steps:

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and grease muffin tin with cooking spray. In a large bowl beat together sugar, oil, milk, egg, and vanilla until smooth. In another bowl (or a food processor) mix the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Add the dry mix to the liquid and stir just enough to bring together. Do not overmix. Pour into muffin tins, filling each about 3/4 full. Bake for about 15 minutes until tester comes out clean. Melt the butter in a small bowl in the microwave. Stir together sugar and cinnamon in another small bowl. When the muffins are done allow to cool for a few minutes, until you are able to handle them easily. Dunk the tops of the muffins in the melted butter and then the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

Tips:

For a crispier muffin, bake for an extra 2-3 minutes.
If you don't have a muffin pan, you can use a loaf pan instead. Just increase the baking time to 30-35 minutes.
To make gluten-free muffins, use gluten-free flour.
To make dairy-free muffins, use almond milk or soy milk instead of regular milk.
For a healthier muffin, use whole wheat flour and reduce the amount of sugar.
Feel free to add your favorite mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.

Sugar donut muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to use up leftover donut holes. With so many variations to choose from, there is sure to be a sugar donut muffin recipe that everyone will enjoy.
