Donut Hole Muffins

I've wanted to make these for awhile now.  They look so delicious and sounded so simple.  And seriously?  How could a muffin rolled in cinnamon and sugar not be delicious?!  Not possible.

1. 2 tablespoons oil
2.  1/2 cup sugar
3. 1 egg
4. 1 teaspoon vanilla
5. 2/3 cup milk
6. 2 cups all purpose flour
7. 1 tablespoon baking powder
8. 1/4 teaspoon salt
9. 3-4 tablespoons butter, melted
10. 1/2 cup sugar
11. 2 teaspoons cinnamon

• Preheat oven to 350. 
• Mix oil and sugar; beat in egg. Add vanilla and milk, and stir until combined.
• Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together. Add to wet ingredients and stir gently, just until combined. (a few lumps should remain).
• Fill muffin tins 2/3 full with batter. DO NOT use muffin liners.  Bake for 10-12 minutes.
• Combine sugar and cinnamon. Dip each muffin into the melted butter and then roll in the cinnamon sugar.

Serve warm!

This is a perfect addition to a Sunday morning brunch.  They are sweet from the cinnamon and sugar but not too sweet.  The muffins are not a cake so they aren't sweet.  It's perfect.

Fun, easy, delicious!
