Cinnamon Pecan Muffins Delight

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cinnamon Pecan Muffins Delight.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C) and give a 12-cup muffin tin a light greasing to ensure your muffins pop out easily later.

2. Step 2

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

3. Step 3

   Whisk these dry ingredients together until they’re well blended, creating a delightful base for your muffins.

4. Step 4

   In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, vegetable oil, and egg.

5. Step 5

   Use an electric mixer to beat these wet ingredients until they’re fully combined and smooth.

6. Step 6

   Now, it’s time to bring the two mixtures together! Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined.

7. Step 7

   Remember, a few lumps are perfectly fine—overmixing can lead to tough muffins, and we want them to be light and fluffy.

8. Step 8

   Next, fold in the chopped pecans with care, adding a lovely crunch to each bite.

9. Step 9

   Spoon about 2/3 cup of this delicious batter into each muffin cup, filling them about two-thirds full for the perfect rise.

10. Step 10

    Pop the muffin tin into your preheated oven and bake for 8 minutes, filling your kitchen with a warm, inviting aroma.

11. Step 11

    While the muffins are baking, let’s prepare a scrumptious topping! In a small bowl, mix together the chopped pecans, sugar, melted butter, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

12. Step 12

    After the initial 8 minutes, take the muffins out of the oven and generously sprinkle the pecan topping over each one.

13. Step 13

    Return the muffins to the oven and bake for an additional 7 to 12 minutes, or until they turn a beautiful golden brown and spring back when you gently press them.

14. Step 14

    Enjoy the anticipation as you wait for your delicious muffins to finish baking!.
