( Recipes by DomesticGoddess )

 

Cinnamon 'n Sugar Muffins

 

2 eggs

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup applesauce

1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup raisins

1/4 cup sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

 

Cinnamon & Sugar Topping For Muffins:

 

1/4 cup sugar

3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted

 

Heat oven to 400 degrees.

You may need to adjust baking temperature.

Since my oven gets too hot, I don't bake mine in a 400 degree oven.

Either 350 or 375 degrees is best for me.

 

Grease bottoms only of 12 medium muffin cups

( 2 1/2 x 1 1/4 inches ).

Beat eggs; stir in milk, applesauce and 1/4 cup butter.

Stir in flour, raisins, 1/4 cup sugar, the baking powder,

salt and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon all at once,

just until flour is moistened ( batter will be lumpy ).

 

Fill muffin cups about 2/3 full.

Bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.

Mix 1/4 cup sugar and 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon.

Immediately dip tops of warm muffins into melted butter,

then into sugar-cinnamon mixture.

Makes 1 dozen muffins.

I just took out the last of my blueberry muffins I had made a few months ago during blueberry season from the freezer today so I need to stock up on more muffins to freeze for snacks for the kids...the pumpkin ones look awesome, although I've never seen cinnamon chips...I've seen butterscotch, but not the cinnamon ones...*pout*

Darlene, I found the Hershey Cinnamon Chips at our Walmart Super Center.
Hope you are able to find them at one of the grocery stores near you.
I think these taste best while still warm.
