How to Make Maple Syrup Muffins

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs until light and fluffy.
Add 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, 1 cup maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the beaten eggs. Mix well to combine.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fill each muffin cup about 2/3 full.
Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Drizzle with extra warmed maple syrup, if desired.
