Sprinkle Muffins

Sprinkles and bright colors make everything funner, that’s why I love baking with them!  Birthday Cake Truffles, Birthday Cake, Sprinkled Butter Cookies, Milk Bar Birthday Cake, Chewy Confetti Cookies, and Confetti Cake Batter Brownies are some of my favorite colorful treats but now we’re adding a new member to the sprinkle family – Fluffy Birthday Muffins!

How to Make Birthday Cake Muffins Video

These Birthday Cake Muffins are super fluffy, just like a birthday cake – and they taste just like it too!  I include sprinkles inside the batter and then add additional sprinkles on top once in the muffin pan to give them a bright rainbow color all over!  They remind me of Funfetti cake mix but in muffin form!

Alternative to Birthday Cupcakes

If you’re looking for a alternative to birthday cupcakes, then bake a batch of these muffins instead. You won’t miss the frosting with how sweet and delicious these are!

These would be perfect for a Birthday Celebration or birthday breakfast, but they would also be great for just adding some cheer to your day or bringing a snack gift to leave in the kitchen at work.
