CINNAMON SWIRL MUFFINS



Cinnamon Swirl Muffins image

My mum bought me a cookery book called 'Muffins Galore' (by Catherine Atkinson), and this is the first recipe I have tried and was very impressed!! This makes 10 of the regular sized muffins (my tin has 7cm diameter holes). You could put water in the spare two holes to save your pan buckling!

Provided by Katybean

Categories     Dessert

Time 25m

Yield 10 muffins, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

250 g self-raising flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
110 g caster sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
225 ml milk
85 g butter, melted
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
75 g light brown sugar (soft)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 190deg C/375 deg F/ Gas Mark 5. Grease 10 cups of a 12 cup muffin tin or line 10 cups with paper muffin cases. For the cinnamon sugar, mix together the cinnamon and the light brown sugar in a small bowl and set aside.
  • For the 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 (I used a spatula, and made sure it was still lumpy).
  • Put a tablespoon of the batter into each prepared muffin cup. Sprinkle each muffin with a heaped teaspoon of cinnamon sugar, then spoon some more batter and cinnamon sugar into the muffin cup. Finish with a layer of batter, dividing it evenly. Using a fine skewer or the tip of a sharp knife, swirl the mixture in each muffin cup to achieve the marbled effect.
  • Bake in the oven for 18-20 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:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your muffins the best flavor. If you can, use organic ingredients for the best results.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your muffins tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full: The muffins will rise as they bake, so don't fill the cups all the way to the top.
  • Bake the muffins at a high temperature: This will help them to rise quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overbake the muffins: Overbaked muffins will be dry and crumbly. Check them for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before storing them: This will help them to keep their shape and texture.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon swirl mini muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. They are also a great way to use up leftover cinnamon and sugar. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy recipe, give these cinnamon swirl mini muffins a try!
