instructions:

  • Preheat over to 425F. Grease muffin tin or line with muffin liners.
  • In a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter until smooth. While the mixer is running, slowly add the white and brown sugar. 
  • Add the eggs one at a time, waiting for each to be incorporated before adding the next. Add vanilla and mix until light and fluffy.
  • In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, nutmeg and salt. Working in batches, add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture, alternating with milk.
  • Spoon the batter into the prepared tins, filling them no more than 3/4 full.
  • Bake until risen and browned, about 15 to 17 minutes. Let cool for few minutes until you are able to hold them.
  • To prepare the topping, combine the sugar and cinnamon to make cinnamon sugar.
  • Dip the top of each muffin in the melted butter, then roll into the cinnamon sugar.  Serve warm.
