2 tsp cinnamon, 2 tbsp sugar
Add flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl and mix well.
1 cup flour, ½ tsp baking soda, ¼ tsp salt
In a larger mixing bowl, add 3/4 cup white sugar, milk, egg and oil. Mix well. Stir in flour mixture. Use a 2 tablespoon portion scoop to scoop 2 tablespoons of batter into 6 muffin tins. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon sugar mixture. Top with an additional 2 tablespoons batter and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon sugar mixture.
