Snickerdoodle Muffins

Another recipe from my favorite recipe blog: www.sisterscafe.blogspot.com. They have so many great muffin recipes! These are delicious the first day but I have to say, not nearly as good the next. So eat them hot out of the oven or share with your neighbors!


Snickerdoodle Muffins

3 cups of all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
10 Tbsp unsalted butter (1 1/4 stick), softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup buttermilk

1) Preheat oven to 375°F.

2) Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and set aside.

3) In a large mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar together, beating until fluffy (about 2 minutes with an electric mixer). Add eggs one at a time, beating until incorporated after each one. Add the vanilla yogurt and buttermilk .

4) Now add the dry ingredients. Mix until all is moist. Do not over beat.

5) Spray each muffin tin with cooking spray or brush with butter. Distribute the muffin dough equally among the cups. Bake until muffins are golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Test with a long toothpick to make sure the center of the muffins are done. Set muffin pan on wire rack to cool. After 5 minutes, remove muffins from pan.

6) While the muffins are cooling, melt 1/4-1/2 cup of butter and prepare a bowl of cinnamon sugar. While the muffins are still a bit warm, dip the top of the muffins in the melted butter and then in the bowl of cinnamon sugar. Enjoy!
