Ingredients

Muffin ingredients:

2 cups self raising flour
½ cup caster sugar
¾ cup milk
100 grams butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 eggs

Topping ingredients:

3 tbsp caster sugar
50 grams butter, melted
1 tsp cinnamon

Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C and line muffin tray with paper cases.

Place flour and caster sugar into a medium sized bowl. Mix and make a well in the middle. In a separate bowl/jug mix vanilla, eggs, milk and whisk well. Then add the melted butter and mix again. Pour the liquid ingredients into well and mix briefly with a wooden spoon.

Spoon out the mixture into muffin cases and fill to approximately two thirds. Bake in the oven for 12 -15 minutes or until lightly golden on top. Muffins will be ready if you press a skewer into the middle and it comes out clean.

Remove muffins and place on a cake rack. In a small bowl, mix the topping ingredients sugar and cinnamon. Using a pastry brush, coat the muffin with a good lashing of butter, then using a teaspoon, sprinkle the muffin with the cinnamon sugar.

Allow to cool slightly before eating. Store in an airtight container.
