Enter: cinnamon muffins. They\u2019re infused with warm flavors. They&#8217;re moist and soft, making it difficult to eat just one. A batch comes together in under 30 minutes so you can bake them the morning of Sunday brunch or as an easy meal-prep recipe. And the really nice part? The recipe lends itself well to customization, so you can mix in tasty add-ins like ripe fruit or creamy chocolate chips.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Ingredients for Cinnamon Muffins<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2083932\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Cinnamon-muffins_TOHD24_20340_JenaCarlin_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Ingredient shot of Taste Recipes Cinnamon Muffins\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Jena Carlin for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Shortening: <\/b>The high-fat content of shortening helps to produce a softer, fluffier cinnamon muffin.<\/li>\n<li><b>Sugar: <\/b>We enhance the flavor of the warm spices in the batter by using granulated sugar.<\/li>\n<li><b>Dairy: <\/b>We mix eggs and milk into the batter to make these cinnamon muffins moist and fluffy.

They&#8217;ll stay fresh at room temperature for three to seven days. If they start to get dry, you can restore the moisture by adding a piece of bread to the container.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you make these cinnamon muffins ahead of time?<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re hosting a Sunday brunch, you can make these cinnamon muffins days in advance. First, follow the recipe, then store them in an airtight container; they can last for three to seven days at room temperature.<\/p>\n<h3>Can you freeze these cinnamon muffins?<\/h3>\n<p>If you baked cinnamon muffins and don\u2019t think you can eat them all within a week, you can store them in the freezer in an airtight container or a freezer-friendly bag. They can be stored for two to three months in the freezer.<\/p>\n<h3>How long do cinnamon muffins last?<\/h3>\n<p>You can store these cinnamon muffins in an airtight container on your counter for three to seven days, or freeze them for two to three months.<\/p>\n<h2>Cinnamon Muffin Tips<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2083937\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/Cinnamon-muffins_TOHD24_20340_JenaCarlin_6.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Taste Recipes Cinnamon Muffins (20340)\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Jena Carlin for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Can I make a vegan version of this cinnamon muffin recipe?<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s surprisingly simple to make these cinnamon muffins vegan. First, replace the shortening and butter with plant-based versions. Then, replace the egg with 1\/4 cup applesauce and the dairy milk with almond, coconut or oat. The texture and flavor might taste slightly different from the original, but they will still be delicious.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I make a gluten-free version of these cinnamon muffins?<\/h3>\n<p>If you or your guest has a gluten intolerance, you can switch the all-purpose flour in this recipe for a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-gluten-free-flour-blends\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/collection\/best-gluten-free-flour-blends\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">gluten-free flour blend<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Try whisking in almond flour, oat flour or coconut flour. The texture and flavor may vary from the original muffin, but they will still taste scrumptious.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>How do I know when the cinnamon muffins are finished baking?<\/h3>\n<p>If your cinnamon muffins begin to rise, have a dome-like structure and turn golden brown, they\u2019re ready to come out of the oven. You can also try the toothpick method to check for doneness: Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin, and if it comes out clean\u2014without any batter sticking to it\u2014the muffins are finished baking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>These cinnamon muffins, with a dash of nutmeg in the batter, are seasoned to please.

Instead of the nutmeg and 1\/4 tsp, I used 1 Tablespoon of cinnamon. And instead of 1\/2 cup of sugar, I used 1\/3 of honey (better for a diabetic).

Each time that I made these, they came out \"white\"--didn't brown, which made them look a bit strange, to me. I will say that they were very delicate and flaky (and fell apart easily), and had a better flavor--thanks to the butter, but the color was just off-putting to me, so I won't be making these again.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":3,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2011-10-15","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"melodious88"},"reviewBody":"I read the reviews that said that the recipe is bland so I tweaked the recipe a little to try to give it more flavor.
