Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl until well blended.
- Mix the milk, vegetable oil, and egg in another bowl until well mixed and frothy.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; it’s okay if there are a few lumps.
- In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter, add a spoonful of cream cheese mixture on top, and cover with more batter until about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
Notes
For extra gooeyness, ensure the cream cheese is properly softened. Customize the muffins by adding nuts or dried fruits.
