Ingredients

6 oz butter, softened, plus extra for greasing
1 cup superfine sugar
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
generous 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 tbsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp freshly grated nutmeg
generous 1 cup milk

Topping

1/2 cup superfine sugar
1 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp butter, melted

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C. Grease a deep 12-cup muffin pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and creamy.
  3. Add the eggs, a little at a time, beating well between additions.
  4. Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg together.
  5. Add half to the creamed mixture with half of the milk. Gently fold the ingredients together before incorporating the remaining flour and milk.
  6. Spoon the mixture into the prepared muffin pan, filling each hole to about two-thirds full.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the muffins are lightly brown and firm to the touch.
  8. For the topping, mix the sugar and cinnamon together.
  9. While the muffins are still warm from the oven, brush lightly with melted butter, and sprinkle over the cinnamon and sugar mixture. Eat warm or cold.

Makes 12 muffins.
