Ingredients

Servings
  • ½ cup butter room temperature (1 stick, unsalted
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 egg room temperature, large
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure
  • ½ cup unsulphured molasses
  • cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon cloves ground
  • ½ cup milk room temperature
  • sugar optional, for topping, coarse

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a 12-count muffin tin with paper liners. Set aside.
  2. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar on medium speed until well combined, about 2 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs and vanilla. Mix until just combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  4. Add the molasses and mix until combined.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  6. 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.
  7. Divide the batter between the muffin pans, filling each one ¾ of the way full. Top with a sprinkle of coarse sugar, if desired.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Transfer the muffins to a wire rack and let cool before serving.
