Cinnamon Muffins with Glaze

These easy made from scratch Cinnamon Muffins with Glaze will be a great breakfast idea, to-go snack, or a perfect holiday dessert.

This is the first week that we finally have real Fall weather, with gusty winds and rain. Though it was surprisingly warm for the most part of the September and October, now, “Winter is coming”! It is time to get ready for the holiday season and our favorite comfort food, snuggled up in warm flannel pajamas with a cup of hot tea or coffee.

So, this week I started to make my classic fall recipes to keep us warm, like my favorite meatballs with rice (Tefteli) and beef stew (I need to share this recipe with you!). If you may have noticed, my baking now includes more chocolate and cinnamon. This aroma makes the house smell so luscious that you cannot resist in grabbing another bite of delightful baked goodies.

Talking about cinnamon, I just baked these amazing Cinnamon Muffins with Glaze that are so easy to make! All you need is about 10 minutes to mix the ingredients and about 20 minutes to bake. By the time your freshly brewed coffee is ready, your house will have a delightful waft of cinnamon and coffee in the air!

These Cinnamon Muffins with Glaze will be a great breakfast idea, to-go snack, or a perfect holiday dessert for cold nights.

For this recipe, I am making 9 standard size muffins, though you can easily divide the batter between 12 muffin tins and make them smaller. Just remember that you will need less time to bake them, about 15 minutes.

Also, I would recommend that you include the glaze. I think it gives that additional touch to these mini cakes.

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray a muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray and set it aside.
2. In a medium size mixing bowl mix together all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
