Cinnamon Coffee Muffins

It’s been awhile sine I’ve made muffins and today my coffee looked so lonely so I made him a buddy: the cinnamon coffee muffin.

I’ve recently discovered instant coffee (thanks to the famous dalgona coffee that’s prancing around all over the internet… hi, I see you) and am having so much fun making coffee flavored everything.

These muffins are so soft and fluffy and seriously so yummy. I’m going to start making muffin making a regular thing.
