Ingredients Needed:

• 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for greasing
• 3/4 cup light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs, at room temperature
• 1/2 cup plain yogurt or sour cream, at room temperature
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup milk, at room temperature

How To Make Muffins Recipe?

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 220°C. Grease a 12-count muffin pan with butter or line with paper liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together 220g flour, 5g baking powder, 5g baking soda, 2.5g salt, and 2.5g ground cinnamon.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat 115g butter and 150g brown sugar on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 3-5 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add 2 large eggs, 120g yogurt, and 10g vanilla extract. Beat on medium speed, then increase to high until well combined.
4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Add 60ml milk and continue to mix on low until well incorporated.
5. Fill Muffin Pan and Bake: Spoon the batter into each muffin cup, filling them to the top. Bake at 220°C for 5 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 175°C without opening the oven. Continue baking for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. Cool the Muffins: Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Recipe Tips:

• Don’t overmix the batter: Mix the wet and dry ingredients just until combined to avoid dense muffins.
• Fill muffin cups to the top: Fill the muffin pan to the top to get nice, tall muffins.
• Check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
• Cool properly: Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to maintain their shape and texture.

How To Store Leftovers?

• Refrigerate: Let the muffins cool down to room temperature. Then, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
• Freeze: Cool the muffins to room temperature, then place them in a freezer-safe container or bag. Store for up to 3 months.
