Tips for the Best Cinnamon Muffins

Don’t overmix the batter. Overmixing can make your muffins tough and chewy. Mix just until you don’t see dry flour anymore.

Try extras! Add-ins like mini chocolate chips, chopped nuts, or raisins can make your muffins even more delicious.

Use fresh baking powder. Old baking powder can cause your muffins to stay flat.

What to Eat with Cinnamon Muffins ??

I love having them with hot drinks like tea or coffee. My little boy usually dips them in hot cocoa, which is messy but great. Sometimes I spread them with yogurt or cream cheese, especially on Sunday mornings. We put them on a plate, and everyone takes what they want there’s usually a fight to get the last piece. In the summer, I like to have them with cold drinks like a refreshing fruit juice or a cold drink. It adds a wonderful flavor and sweetness too.
