Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line 12 standard muffin tins with paper liners.
- Add the softened butter and brown sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until they are well combined, about 2 minutes.
- Next add the eggs and vanilla. Mix until just combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Add the molasses and mix until combined.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, kosher salt, and cloves.
- With the mixer on low speed, alternate between adding the dry ingredients and the milk in batches - ⅓ flour, ½ milk, ⅓ flour, last ½ milk, last ⅓ flour.
- Mix just until combined. You don’t want to overmix!
- Divide the batter between the muffin pans, filling each one ¾ of the way full. Top with a sprinkle of coarse sugar, if desired.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins to a wire rack and cool before storing. Muffins will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
