01 - Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease it.
02 - Pour apple cider into a small saucepan and simmer over medium heat until reduced by half, approximately 1/2 cup remains. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
03 - In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt.
04 - In a large bowl, whisk the reduced apple cider, milk, melted butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until evenly combined.
05 - Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
06 - Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full.
07 - Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
08 - Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool further.
09 - Mix granulated sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. Brush each warm muffin with melted butter, then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture until coated.
10 - Serve muffins warm or at room temperature.
