Through the Window

These look like muffins, but they taste a lot like hot sugared doughnuts. They’re great in the morning with fresh squeezed orange juice and fruit.

French Dipped Muffins

1 3/4 cups flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon fresh ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, divided

3/4 cup cane sugar, divided

1/3 cup canola oil

1 egg, slightly beaten

3/4 cup milk

1/2 cup melted butter

Lightly grease and flour muffin tin with twelve cups. Combine 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 3/4 cup sugar and the other dry ingredients. Mix oil, egg and milk in separate bowl. Add liquids to dry and stir until just combined. Batter should be slightly lumpy. Spoon batter into prepared muffin tins. Bake at 350F for about 25 minutes. While muffins are baking , combine remaining 1/4 cup granulated sugar with another  1/4 teaspoon cinnamon. While muffins are still hot, dip their tops in melted butter and roll in cinnamon/sugar mixture.
