Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
1/3 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 medium egg
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsps. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
3/4 cup milk
For Rolling:
1/2 cup powdered sugar, mixed with 1 tsp. cinnamon
Topping:
1/4 cup melted margarine
In a mixing bowl mash together the shortening and sugar. Add the egg and whisk it all up until it is smooth. Make sure you use shortening, not Margarine. The shortening gives this recipe it's special texture. Measure the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg into the bowl. Pour in the milk. Mix the batter with a whisk until it is smooth.
Drop the mixture into 12 oiled muffin cups. Make sure not to over fill the muffin cups, 1/2 to 2/3 full is full enough.
Bake the muffins at 350 degrees for 25 minutes, or until the muffins are brown on top. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool slightly. Take the muffins out of the pan.
When they are cool enough to handle, dip the tops of the muffins into the melted margarine. Then dip them into the powdered sugar/cinnamon mixture. Arrange the prepared muffins on a large plate and serve while still warm.
Yields 1 dozen.
