The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup vegetable or canola or coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 2/3 cups all purpose flour (I like to use half cake flour and half all purpose)
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Set rack in center of oven. Line 12 muffin cups or grease the cups if not using liners.
  • In a medium sized bowl, beat the softened butter, oil, and sugars until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla, and beat again until smooth.
  • Add the baking powder, soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt and flour to the wet mixture in bowl. Fold together by hand using a large spatula or spoon.
  • Add the milk all at once and fold again by hand using spatula or spoon. Make sure all ingredients are combined. Do not over mix!
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin cups. The cups should be almost full.
  • Bake the muffins for 15-18 minutes or until tops are golden brown and set.
  • Remove from oven.
  • While muffins are cooling a bit, melt the butter in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, combine 3 tablespoons sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon.
  • Dip the top of the warm muffin into the melted butter, then the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Serve warm if possible!
