1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. baking powder

  5. Spoon into lightly greased muffin tins.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. To make the topping, place the melted butter in a bowl.
  8. Then mix the cinnamon, sugar and nutmeg in a nother bowl.

Notes

  • I like to line my muffin pan with muffin liners to make it easier to clean up.
  • I usually make my muffins “rustic”, where I just pour the batter in and bake, but if you’re trying to make them extra pretty, you can smooth out the tops before baking. My boys snarf them down so quickly, I hate to spend too much time being OCD!
