  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. ground nutmeg, divided
  • 1/3 c. shortening

  • 1/2 c. milk

Add flour mixture to creamed mixture; beat in the milk until smooth. Fill each cup of a lightly greased 12 cup muffin tin two-thirds full with the batter. Bake at 350° for 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Melt butter in a small saucepan. In a small bowl combine 1/2 cup sugar, the 1 teaspoon cinnamon and remaining 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg.

"These remind me of an old fashioned cinnamon sugar donut. I doubled the batter to get bigger muffins but didn't need to double the topping to cover them. Next time I might cover the entire muffin with the topping. See no reason why not to. I added 1/2 tsp of cinnamon to the batter in addition to the 1 tsp for the topping."
