Churro Muffins
Description
This recipe makes small muffins by mixing sugar, melted butter, milk, vanilla, flour, baking powder, and salt into a simple batter. The muffins bake to a light golden color with a tender crumb inside. After baking, they are unmolded and each muffin is dipped in melted butter, then rolled in a cinnamon sugar blend similar to churro coating, creating a sweet, fragrant crust.
The combination of the soft muffin interior and the cinnamon-sugar exterior gives a layered texture and flavor experience. These are suitable as snacks or breakfast treats, offering a familiar churro taste in mini muffin form without frying.
Ingredients
Muffins:
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1/4 cup butter melted
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Churro Cinnamon Sugar Topping:
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a 24 mini-muffin pan with cooking spray.
- Mix 1/2 cup sugar and 1/4 cup butter in a large bowl. Stir in the milk and vanilla, then mix in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined. Fill the prepared mini muffin cups about half full.
- Bake in the preheated oven until the top of the muffins are lightly golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
- While muffins are baking, place 1/4 cup of melted butter in a small bowl. In a separate bowl, combine 1/2 cup of sugar and cinnamon.
- Turn the muffin tin pan over to release the muffins on a plate or cooling rack.
- Dip each muffin in the melted butter, and roll in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Let the Churro Muffins cool and serve.
