Desserts

Spiced Muffins

The Southern Rustic

I love the fall season. It is just so cozy and calm. It is a good time to start pulling out your tasty fall and winter recipes. This is one of those recipes that I pull out at the start of the season to have on hand. They are perfect with your morning coffee or tea, and great for snacks and desserts. They are slightly dense, slightly sweet, and tasty.

These make 14 to 16 muffins depending on the size of the muffin tin you are using.

Let’s get started:

INGREDIENTS:

3 C. Flour
1 Tbsp. Baking Powder
1/2 Tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 Tsp. Salt
1 Tbsp. Cinnamon
2 Tsp. Ground ginger
1/4 Tsp. Ground Cloves
1 1/4 C. Milk
1 Tbsp. Vanilla
2 Eggs – beaten
1/2 cup ( 1 stick) Butter – unsalted and melted ( cooled slightly)
3/4 C. sugar
3/4 C. Brown Sugar

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a bowl combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Mix well.
  2. In a separate bowl whisk together the butter, milk, eggs, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined.
  4. Line a muffin tin or spray a silicone muffin tray with oil. Fill 3/4 of the way up the cavity of the tin with the batter.
  5. Bake at 375* for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through. You can check with a toothpick. Just poke the muffin with the toothpick and if it comes out clean or with a few moist crumbs you can remove them from the oven.
  6. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Store in an airtight container on the counter for 2 to 3 days or in the fridge for up to 1 week.

  • Add-ins: Pecans, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chocolate chips, or white chocolate chips.

Hello Everyone! Thank you so much for stopping by. Let me tell you a little bit about me. I am a mom of two, a stepmom of 1, two wild and silly pups, and I have the best husband in the world. I also have a love of cooking and baking. I am always in the kitchen finding new recipes to try, recreating old family recipes, and reminiscing about the old ways. I am vintage at heart and love all things old and cast iron. I love spending time with the family and pups and just going where life takes us. I created my blog a few years ago with my youtube channel because I thought that If I shared a recipe, then people just might like to see just how the recipe is put together. I share all of my family recipes along with today's recipes. Whether it is old-fashioned recipes, sourdough, einkorn, desserts, sheet pan meals, or even crockpot meals, they are all absolutely delicious. I spend hours, if not days, creating and dabbling with recipes to make sure they are the best for you and your family. All of my recipes are family tested and family-approved before they are ever posted to my blog or youtube channel. Every now and again I will share some behind-the-scenes fun and chaos of our creations and family adventures. I hope you all stick around and join us here at The Southern Rustic and see what we cook up in my kitchen. You can find all of my social media information in the Contact/Donate OR the Social Media Accounts tab on my home page. There I have listed my Instagram pages, YouTube channel, Email, and other information so you can easily find everything in one place. I hope that you all have a wonderful, wonderful day and I will see you soon. Sam TheSouthernRustic
