Pumpkin Muffins are a go-to iconic fall Baked Good, but these Gingerbread Muffins are a must-have Christmas breakfast treat.

Sabrina’s Gingerbread Muffin Recipe

These easy Homemade Gingerbread Muffins are packed with sticky sweet molasses and ginger for a muffin that tastes like classic gingerbread. These are a great breakfast to make during the holidays. You can enjoy the tasty, spiced muffins warm with a little butter, and a hot cup of coffee. Or, turn them into easy Christmas cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting. Finish off with a drizzle of Salted Caramel Sauce for an extra special treat.
