Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

  6. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon.
  7. Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter, sprinkle with some of the brown sugar mixture, and then top with remaining batter. Swirl a knife through the batter to create a marbled effect.
