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.
