Bastille Day Muffins!

When I was in college, I took French. Not my brightest idea, since, after 7 years of Spanish, I tried to pronounce everything as if it were in Spanish. Oh, well. Anyways, since I was taking French, I tried to do French things. The extent of that included watching movies I already knew in French (it sort of helped) and making Bastille Day Muffins (it was no help at all, but fun!) My roommates at the time LOVED the muffins, so now it's become a tradition and I make them every year. They're super easy and delicious.

Ingredients:

MUFFINS
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup melted butter
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt

TOPPING
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 cup melted butter 

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2. Mix everything in bowl (seriously, these muffins could not be easier - just mix it all in, in whatever order you want - there can even be lumps and they will turn out great)
3. Place batter in greased muffin tin (this makes 12 muffins)
4. Bake for 20-25 minutes (check at 20)
5. Take muffins out, and let cool a bit so that they're warm, but easy to handle
6. Melt butter for topping and create sugar/cinnamon/nutmeg mixture
7. Roll muffins first in butter, then in sugar/cinnamon/nutmeg mixture
8. Serve and Enjoy!
