Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 2 teaspoons Ground ginger
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cups Molasses
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the cups with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, molasses, sugar, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined.

Step 4

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into the well. Gently fold the mixture together using a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if the batter is slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.

Step 6

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 7

Remove the muffins from the oven and allow them to cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

Serve warm or at room temperature. These muffins can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
