Equipment

  • Muffin Tin
  • 12 cupcake liners

Ingredients

Bread

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 large egg lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/3 cup sprinkles

Glaze

  • 2 cups powdered sugar sifted
  • 3 tablespoons buttermilk plus more as needed
  • 1 tablespoon light corn syrup
  • Nonpareils

Instructions

Bread

  • Move rack to upper third in oven and preheat oven to 425°. Line muffin tin with cupcake liners. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and kosher salt. In a smaller bowl, whisk together egg, buttermilk, butter, and almond extract. Add wet ingredients to dry and mix just until combined. Fold in sprinkles.
  • Transfer batter to lined muffin tins and bake for 15-18 minutes. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes, then transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

Glaze

  • Once muffins have cooled completely, prepare glaze. Whisk together powdered sugar, buttermilk, and corn syrup. Adjust buttermilk as needed to get a thick pourable consistency. Spoon over bread and top with nonpareils.
