If you’re a vanilla aficionado like I am you’re going to love these adorable little muffins that are brimming with vanilla flavor. The muffins are fast, easy, made in one bowl, and you don’t even have to use a mixer. They’re not an overly sweet muffin making them an ideal choice for breakfast, snacks, or in lunch boxes. In fact, there’s only 1/2 cup sugar in the entire batch. With so much lovely vanilla flavor, I didn’t want or see the need to add lots of sugar. I wanted the vanilla flavor to shine through on its own.
However feel free to dunk the muffins in butter and dip them in cinnamon-sugar after they’ve baked like I did with these Cinnamon Sugar Mini Donut Muffins if you’re feeling like more of a desserty muffin and less like a wholesome muffin. I won’t judge. I used the seeds of two vanilla beans which are readily available in most grocery stores next to the vanilla extract. However if you can’t find vanilla beans, vanilla bean paste is wonderful, or simply use vanilla extract.
I used Horizon® Organic Whole Milk. There are no GMOs, no antibiotics, no added hormones, no persistent pesticides, and Horizon® believes in the humane treatment of cows. If it says Horizon® Organic on the carton, you know what’s inside comes from happy cows on family-run organic farms.
Horizon® Milk brings 50% more vitamin D than typical whole milk in every delicious serving. Did you see the Caramel Macchiato Copycat Recipe I recently made with it? So creamy and fabulous.
I wish I was eating a muffin and washing it down with a Caramel Macchiato right now actually.
Here is a video showing you how I make the muffins.
