Cinnamon Biscuit Muffins

1.Preheat your oven to 200°C (392°F). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease thoroughly.

2.In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and salt.

3.Stir in the crushed biscuits until evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.

4.In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, 1/4 cup melted butter, and vanilla extract until well combined.

5.Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a spatula to mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are acceptable.

6.Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

7.Prepare the topping: In a small bowl, mix the 2 tablespoons melted butter, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon until crumbly.

8.Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar topping evenly over the top of the batter in each muffin cup.

9.Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.

10.Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
