Coffee Cake Muffins - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar, divided
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 egg, beaten
3/4 cup milk
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, softened
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/3 cup melted butter or 1/3 cup margarine

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0. Grease a 12-cup muffin pan.
Mix flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, salt and nutmeg in a medium bowl.
Beat egg and milk in a small bowl.
Beat softened butter in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add flour mixture and egg mixture alternately, mixing with a wooden spoon after each addition. Do not overmix.
Spoon batter into prepared muffin pan, filling each cup 2/3 full.
Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean or until muffins are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
Mix remaining sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Remove muffins. Dip muffin tops in melted butter, then in cinnamon sugar. Place right side up on a wire rack; cool or serve warm.
