Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 24

MIX TOGETHER UNTIL WELL BLENDED:
1 1/2 c pumpkin puree
1/2 c vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1/4 c dark molasses
1/2 c buttermilk
ADD AND MIX WELL:
1 2/3 c white sugar
1/3 c brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp cloves
1 tsp vanilla
MIX THE FOLLOWING DRY INGREDIENTS TOGETHER & ADD SLOWLY TO THE BATTER:
3 to 3 1/2 c flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
ONCE ALL OF THE ABOVE INGREDIENTS ARE MIXED THEN ADD:
1 pkg cinnamon chips
FOLLOW DIRECTIONS BELOW AND THEN MIX TOGETHER AND SPRINKLE THE TOPS OF THE MUFFINS:
1/3 c white sugar
1 tsp cinnamon sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffin tins (any size) by spraying with baking spray (Pam) and lining with paper or foil muffin papers. Mix together the first group of ingredients and then add the second group of ingredients.
  • 2. Add third group of dry ingredients together and slowly add to the batter. Once all the dry ingredients have been well mixed into the batter add one package of cinnamon chips. *Note: I found Hershey's cinnamon chips at both QFC (Kroger) and Albertson's here in the Northwest.
  • 3. After the chips have been stirred in well, scoop the batter into your muffin tins. This will make 12 jumbo muffins (plus a few minis) or 24 regular sized muffins. Before baking sprinkle each muffin with about a teaspoon of cinnamon sugar (less for minis) and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes for minis and 20-25 for regular or jumbo muffins.

Provided by Teresa Jacobson

Categories     Other Breakfast

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 26

TOP MUFFIN:
1 c unsalted butter, softened
2 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 c plain nonfat yogurt
2 1/2 c flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground flaxseed (optional)
10 oz bag of cinnamon baking chips
BOTTOM MUFFIN
2 1/2 c flour
2 c sugar
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ground flaxseed (optional)
1/2 tsp salt
2 large eggs
1 1/3 c 100% pure pumpkin
1/3 c olive oil
2 tsp vanilla extract
TOPPING:
2 Tbsp sugar
2 tsp cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners (trust me, you want to use the liners!)
  • 2. FOR TOP HALF OF MUFFIN: In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, sugar, salt, and cinnamon; add eggs and mix well. In a small separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, ground flax, and cinnamon chips; add to wet ingredients and fold together just until combined. Set aside.
  • 3. FOR BOTTOM HALF OF MUFFIN: In a separate mixing bowl, combine flour, ground flax, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Make a well in center of flour mixture and add eggs, pumpkin, olive oil and vanilla; blend together until smooth.
  • 4. Place a spoonful or two of pumpkin mixture into bottom of muffin liners. Top with cinnamon chip mixture until muffin cups are 2/3 to 3/4 full. In a small bowl, combine topping mixture and sprinkle over tops of muffins.
  • 5. Bake in preheated oven for 24-30 minutes (depending on the size of muffin pan) or until a toothpick comes out clean. Jumbo muffins take about 30 minutes. Remove pan and allow to cool.
  • 6. *** I added about 1/2c. chopped walnuts to half of the pumpkin mixture. I'm the only one that likes nuts in my house!

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use dark brown sugar instead of granulated sugar.
  • If you don't have cinnamon chips, you can substitute an equal amount of chopped walnuts or pecans.
  • To make the muffins extra moist, add a mashed banana or a cup of grated zucchini.
  • For a crispy muffin top, sprinkle the tops with a mixture of cinnamon sugar before baking.
  • Muffins are best when eaten fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon chip muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or snack. They are perfect for busy mornings or for packing in lunches. With their moist texture and sweet, cinnamony flavor, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
