Cinnamon and Sugar Muffins

What better thing to do on a snow day than bake!  Today I tried a new recipe that I found on simplykierste.com and it was a huge hit with the kids.

This recipe is great in that it uses just basic baking ingredients that I always have on hand.  The sour cream makes them super moist!

Ingredients

• 2 c.flour
• 1 c. sugar
• ½ c. butter, melted
• 1-8 oz. carton sour cream
• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 1 tsp. baking soda
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• ½ tsp. salt
• *1/2 c. sugar
• *2 tsp. cinnamon

Instructions

2. Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
3. Pour the 1 c. sugar into a large bowl, then add the melted butter.
4. Add eggs, vanilla, and sour cream, and mix well.
5. Stir in the flour mixture.
6. Combine the ½ c. sugar and 2 tsp. cinnamon and set aside.
7. Place a small amount of batter in tin, add desired amount of the cinnamon & sugar mixture (we like a lot ☺, probably a 1 tsp. or so), then add another small amount of the batter on top. Sprinkle lightly with the cinnamon mixture.
