Ingredients

Muffin Batter

  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/3 cup vanilla yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1 ¼ cup flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon

Coating

  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter melted

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F and grease a mini muffin tin.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, mix the butter and sugar for a couple minutes, until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg, vanilla, yogurt and milk and stir until well-combined.
  • Add the dry ingredients and stir until just combined, scraping down the edges of the bowl at least once.
  • Scoop into prepared mini muffin tins, filling each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Let cool for 2 minutes.
  • Remove the muffins from the pan.
  • In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon for the coating.
  • Dip the top of a muffin into the melted butter and then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Repeat until all muffins are coated.

Notes

If you don’t have a mini muffin tin, you can make “muffin tops” instead!!  Simply add an additional tablespoon of flour to the batter and scoop the batter onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.  Then brush with butter once they come out of the oven and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar!
