Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F and generously coat a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray, or line with paper liners. In a large bowl, whisk flour, Splenda Magic Baker Sweetener, baking powder, cinnamon and salt together until combined.
In a separate large bowl, whisk milk, butter, egg and vanilla together until combined. Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients. Fold together until combined. Fold in cherries and poppy seeds until just combined.
Divide batter evenly among muffin cups, filling about two-thirds full. Top evenly with almonds.
Bake until muffins are light golden-brown, or until toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool in pan for 10 minutes. Run a small knife around edge of each muffin to help loosen. Transfer muffins to wire rack and let cool completely. Serve and enjoy.
Note
For a taller muffin dome, prepare the batter the night before, cover with plastic wrap and keep refrigerated until ready to use. Portion chilled batter into muffin cups and bake as directed.
