Cinnamon rolls are a favourite
with my family, especially Grandkids.
I get asked to make them often.
For a change, I decided to bake
them as muffins and add some walnuts.

They didn't last long....
Ingredients:
3 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt
4 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup sugar
2 eggs at room temperature, beaten
3/4 cup milk at room temperature
1/2 cup melted butter cooled
(Brown Sugar spread mixture)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup melted butter
3 tbsp. cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped walnuts.(Optional)
Raisins, currants or other nuts may be used also.
Directions:

Make the brown sugar spread mixture
and refrigerate, to let it thicken,
making it easier to spread.
In a small bowl,
mix together the brown sugar,
melted butter and cinnamon.
Place in the refrigerator to cool.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour,
salt, baking powder and sugar.
In a smaller bowl,
whisk together the eggs,
milk and melted butter.

knead about 10 times.
Roll dough out approx. 12'by16"
Spread the brown sugar spread
mixture with a spatula on top.
Sprinkle the chopped walnuts. (optional)
Roll up to form a log.
I sliced them about 3/4 inch thick,
yields 22 muffins.
For a larger muffin,
slice 1" thick.
I press some walnuts in the top of the muffin
(I love walnuts)
Place in greased muffin tins.
Bake at 375 deg. for approx. 20 minutes.
Delicious!
Enjoy!
