Ingredients

  • Muffins
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, melted
  • 1 Land O Lakes® Egg, beaten
  • 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/3 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preparation

Step 1

Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 12-cup muffin pan; set aside.

Combine milk, 1/3 cup melted butter and egg in bowl. Set aside.

Combine flour, 3/4 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in bowl. Add egg mixture; stir just until combined.

Spoon batter into prepared pan. Bake 15-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Place 1/3 cup melted butter in bowl. Combine 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon in another bowl. Remove muffins from pan; let stand 2 minutes on cooling rack.

Dip tops of warm muffins into melted butter, then into cinnamon sugar mixture.


Variations:

Made these just as directed, with a minor addition of pumpkin pie spice and omitted nutmug as it is in the pie spice mix.


Like other reviewers I added a tsp. of vanilla. To cut back on butter, I sprayed the warm muffins with butter and then dipped them in half the amount of sugar and cinnamon called for and still had a little left over. Also, I baked mine at 350 degrees for 19 minutes since I think 375 is often too high for baked goods.
