# Instructions:
01 -
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line your muffin tray with paper liners.
02 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, white sugar, and baking powder until combined evenly.
03 -
Take another bowl and stir the melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla together. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir gently until well blended.
04 -
Carefully fold the sour cream into your batter until it’s creamy and smooth.
05 -
In a tiny bowl, combine the cinnamon and brown sugar for the swirl.
06 -
Scoop some batter into each muffin liner, filling them halfway. Sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture, then cover with more batter until they’re about 3/4 full.
07 -
Place your muffins in the oven for 18-20 minutes. You’ll know they’re done when a toothpick comes out clean. Let them cool after baking.
08 -
While they’re still a little warm, mix the powdered sugar and milk to make your glaze. Drizzle it over the muffins for some extra sweetness.
# Notes:
01 -
Make sure not to overmix the batter or you’ll miss out on that fluffy texture.
02 -
Your ingredients will mix better if they’re at room temperature!
