Food porn: French Breakfast Puffs

P184

Made these for breakfast this morning. The recipe came from an old Better Homes and Gardens cookbook.

1-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
1-1/2 tsp. Baking powder
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp. salt
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup melted butter

Topping:
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
3 tbsp melted butter

Heat oven to 350 F

In a bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt.

In another bowl, combine milk, egg, and melted butter. Add to flour mixture, stirring just until moistened (a few lumps should remain).

Grease and flour a muffin pan and fill each cup 2/3 full. Bake at 350 for 20-25 min, or until golden brown. While they are baking, prepare topping: combine cinnamon and sugar in one bowl, have melted butter in another.

When done, transfer puffs to cooling rack and immediately dip tops into butter, then cinnamon sugar mixture. Serve warm.

Makes 12. Nom, nom, nom.
