French Breakfast Muffins

What makes them French, I don't know. But they are yummy. I made them for breakfast this morning, and they were a hit. I used regular plain yogurt instead of butter in the muffins, and they still turned out delicious. They are not very sweet, so the cinnamon sugar on top is a must. I wanna try them with blueberries next, maybe with a little bit of almost flavor too.

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 cup white sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 egg, lightly beaten

1/2 cup milk

1/4 cup butter, melted

1/4 cup white sugar

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/3 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.

In a medium mixing bowl, stir together flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, nutmeg and salt. Make a well in the center of the mixture. Stir together egg, milk and 1/3 cup melted butter. Add egg mixture to flour mixture; stir until just moistened (batter may be lumpy). Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.

Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes. Meanwhile, combine 1/4 cup sugar, cinnamon. When muffins are finished baking, dip tops of muffins in the melted butter and then in the cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm.
