Description
These homemade McGriddle muffins capture the iconic flavors of the fast-food classic, with a soft, fluffy texture and a drizzle of sweet maple syrup. They’re the perfect quick and easy breakfast treat for busy mornings or leisurely weekends.
Ingredients
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 2 tablespoons white sugar
– 2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1 cup milk
– 2 eggs
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
– 1/4 cup maple syrup
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin or line it with paper liners.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and melted butter.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
5. Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
6. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Drizzle the warm muffins with maple syrup and serve immediately.
Notes
For a richer flavor, you can substitute buttermilk for the regular milk. You can also add a sprinkle of cinnamon or a touch of vanilla extract to the batter. These muffins are best served warm, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
