1/4 C sugar
3 Tb butter, melted

FROSTING GLAZE:

Directions:
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
- Into a medium-sized mixing bowl place 2 C flour, 1 Tb baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 C sugar. Toss it around with a fork to combine.
- In a large glass measuring cup melt 3 Tb butter. Add 1 C milk and stir to combine. Add 1 egg and whisk it into the mixture. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients.
- Stir it in, but not completely. You want to be sure not to overmix. Just mix it in a bit...we are going to add some of the yummy cinnamon mixture as well.
- To make the cinnamon mixture, melt 3 Tb butter in a small mixing bowl. Add 1 C brown sugar, 1 Tb cinnamon and a dash of salt. Stir to combine.
- Fold half of the cinnamon mixture into to batter. Stir just until there are no streaks of flour.
- Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners. Spray with cooking spray and fill them just a bit more than half way full.
- Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon mixture over the top of each muffin.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the muffins to rest in the tins for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
- To make the glaze grab a small mixing bowl and combine 1 Tb melted butter, 1 Tb maple syrup, 1 tsp vanilla, 2 Tb milk, 1 C powdered sugar and a dash of salt. Whisk it together until smooth and glossy.
- Drizzle the frosting over the warm muffins.
Serve and enjoy!
