Jumbo Cinnamon Chocolate Chip Muffins

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups flour
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup buttermilk or milk I use buttermilk
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • coarse sugar for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a 6- jumbo muffin tin with paper liners. With a mixer beat together eggs and sugar until light yellow in color – about 3-4 minutes. Mix in the milk, oil, and vanilla, and beat until well combined. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  • Reserve about one tablespoon of flour mixture in a small bowl, and add the rest of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. Mix until just starting to combine with the mixer – there will still be clumps of flour – and finish mixing the batter by hand until just combined. It will be lumpy and you will see a few sprays of flour. Add chocolate chips to the reserved flour mixture and toss so the chocolate chips are coated with flour. Add chips to batter and gently fold.
  • Pour batter into tins, pouring batter all the way to the top of each tin (seriously, to the top). Sprinkle with sugar and bake for 5 minutes, then reduce temperature to 375 and bake for 22-28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Notes

If you are baking muffins in a regular-sized pan, reduce cooking time by about 10 minutes. Check them early!
