  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder Ensure it’s fresh for best results.

  • 1 cup Milk Almond or oat milk serves as a good dairy-free alternative.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, melted butter, sugar, and milk. Whisk until smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together all-purpose flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined, with a few flour streaks remaining.
  5. Toss cherries lightly in flour before gently folding them into the batter to prevent sinking.
  6. Spoon the batter into muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  7. Combine melted butter, flour, sugar, and cinnamon for the topping; sprinkle over each muffin cup.
  8. Bake for 22 minutes, or until tops are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
