MUFFINS

• 1/4 cup butter, room temp


• 1/4 cup vegetable oil


• 1/2 cup granulated sugar


• 1/3 cup brown sugar


• 2 large eggs


• 1 1/2 tsp baking powder


• 1/4 tsp baking soda


• 3/4 tsp nutmeg


• 1 tsp cinnamon


• 3/4 tsp salt


• 1 tsp vanilla extract


• 2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour


• 1 cup milk

GLAZE

• 3 tbsp butter, melted


• 1 cup confectioners’ sugar, sifted


• 3/4 tsp vanilla


• 2 tbsp hot water

HOW TO MAKE IT

MUFFINS

• Lightly grease a standard muffin tin. Or line with 12 paper muffin cups, and grease the cups with non-stick vegetable oil spray; this will ensure that they peel off the muffins nicely


• In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter, vegetable oil, and sugars till smooth


• Add the eggs, beating to combine


• Stir in the baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla


• Stir the flour into the butter mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour and making sure everything is thoroughly combined


• Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared pan, filling the cups nearly full




• I used an ice cream scooper, which helps you keep all the muffins the same size




• Bake the muffins at 425°F for 15 to 17 minutes, or until they’re a pale golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the middle of one of the center muffins comes out clean

GLAZE

• In a medium bowl, prepare the glaze by mixing together the melted butter, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla and water




• Whisk until smooth




• When the muffins have cooled slightly, dip the muffin crown into the glaze and allow the glaze to harden. I strongly recommend going for another dip in the glaze – after all, this is the best part and the double dip ensures that you’ve got a good solid coat on there


• Serve warm, or cool on a rack and wrap airtight




• Muffins will keep at room temperature for about a day.
