6. Spoon batter evenly into prepared muffin cups. Bake 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool muffins 10 minutes in pan on a cooling rack.
7. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together sugar and cinnamon. One at a time, remove muffins from pan and brush tops and sides with butter, then roll in sugar-cinnamon mixture. Transfer to cooling rack to cool completely.
