Gluten free cinnamon sugar muffins are a delicious breakfast treat!
I have had this recipe set aside to share with you all for several months, but I keep putting it off because I have shared so many muffin recipes. The reality is though that my family loves muffins. We make them at least once a week and eat them for breakfast, lunch, snacks, and dessert.
So, I decided to ignore that fact that I have already shared quite a few muffin recipes and am sharing this one today. I hope you don’t mind.
For these muffins I wanted to recreate a cinnamon sugar muffin that I remember making before I went gluten free. It always reminded me of cinnamon sugar toast, but in a muffin form. I knew I could come up with a similar version in gluten free.
And I did! With some trial and error, I finally came up with a gluten free cinnamon muffin we love.
