Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Fill muffin pan with paper liners.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl.
- In a large bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together until well blended.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet, and whisk until just blended and no streaks of flour remain. Don't over beat: small lumps are fine.
- Fill 12 muffin cups and bake for 20-25 minutes. The muffins will be risen and starting to crack on the surface. If they are still wobbly to the touch, and the cracks look very wet, bake a little longer.
- Let the muffins cool on a rack while you make the glaze. Stir together the powdered sugar, milk or half and half, and vanilla to make a glaze. If you need to thin it a bit, add more liquid. It should be thick but still drizzle from your spoon.
- While the muffins are still a bit warm, dunk each one headfirst into the glaze, pull back up and let some of the excess glaze drip off. Then flip the muffin over and set on a rack.
- Once the glaze sets up you can enjoy.
Notes
- Ovens vary greatly, so I recommend an oven thermometer to be sure of the temperature each time you bake. Always check your muffins on the early side.
