Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 12 muffin cups with muffin liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray (or oil).
  • Sift together flour, baking soda, salt and spices.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together the egg and sugar. Next whisk in the oil. Stir in buttermilk.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry. Mix well. Spoon batter into the muffin tin.
  • For topping, in a small bowl, combine the melted butter (or margarine), sugar and cinnamon.
  • Bake for 20-22 minutes, until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
  • While the muffins are still hot, dip them in the melted butter and then roll them around in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Let cool on a rack or eat immediately and enjoy!
