Prep Time: Cook Time: Total Time:
Dirt bombs are best eaten warm, but will keep for several hours.
For the muffins:
1 stick butter, softened
1 c. sugar
2 large eggs
3 c. all-purpose flour
1 T. baking powder
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 c. milk
For the “dirt”
1 stick butter, melted
1 c. sugar mixed with 1 T. ground cinnamon
Grease and flour a 12 c. muffin tin. Preheat the oven to 350.
Cream together the butter and sugar in a large bowl. Beat in the eggs, one at a time.
Combine the dry ingredients. Add one third of them and one third of the milk to the bowl and beat at low speed until just barely mixed. Repeat twice, until all the ingredients are mixed together and the batter is smooth.
Fill the greased muffin tin no more than 2/3 full. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the muffins are golden brown. Turn out on a rack until they’re just cool enough to handle, then dip each in the melted butter and roll it in the cinnamon sugar.
Makes 12 large bombs, 16-18 smaller ones.
