1/4 cup brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners.

7. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

8. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
