Cinnamon Chip Muffins


The other day as I was cleaning out my pantry, I came across 2 bags of unopened cinnamon chips.

They were very close to expiring so I had to think of something super quick to do with them.  

Normally I would make cookies, however, I wanted something different and new.  Enter Pinterest and these lovely muffins!  


These muffins are literally VERY easy to make.  

All you do is combine everything in a bowl and mix, mix, mix.  Then bake.  

That's it!  No really.  That is it :)

Have company coming over in an hour?  Whip these up.

Is it your turn to supply snacks for the Girl Scout Troop?  Whip these up.

Kids hungry for something quick and sweet?  Whip these up.

They puff up so nice and plump that people will think you spent hours making them.  Don't take my word for it though.  Try it out and see for yourself ;)

Cinnamon Chip Muffins

(makes 9 good sized muffins)


Ingredients:
2 cups Bisquick mix
1/3 cup sugar
1 and 1/2 tbsp. of brown sugar 
1/8 tsp. ground cinnamon 
2 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 egg, slightly beaten
2/3 cup milk
1 cup cinnamon chips

Directions:
1.  Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Line or grease muffin tins.
2.  Place all of the above ingredients in a bowl.  Mix until everything is well combined.
3.  Scoop mix out by spoon fulls (I used my icecream scooper) into each muffin tin.
4.  Bake for 15-18 minutes or until tops are light brown and toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

**Libby's Notes:  Don't have any cinnamon chips on hand?  Use any other kind of baking chips (chocolate, butterscotch, etc..).  These also freeze VERY well :)

  2. I used to use cinnamon chips a LOT! They're delicious rolled up in crescent roll dough, BUT I can't find them anymore!! I hope they will start selling them again in wider release.

    1. Over here, they normally start appearing on the shelves around the fall and Christmas timeline. Hopefully you will be able to find them this year where you are at :)

  7. Random question... if I don't have any Bisquick on hand, do you think I can substitute another pancake mix? (It's Krusteaz Buttermilk - a just add water kind). Thanks!

    1. Leah, I have not tried this recipe with another pancake mix, but it's worth a shot. If you do it, let us know how it goes ;)
