French Breakfast Muffins

1/3 c. shortening
1 egg
1/2 c. sugar
1-1/2 c. flour
1/2 c. milk
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. butter or margarine, melted
cinnamon sugar

Mix thoroughly shortening, sugar, and egg. Stir in flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg in separate bowl. Alternate flour mixture with milk into egg mixture. Divide dough into muffin tin. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Roll each muffin in melted butter then in cinnamon sugar.

*I use twice as much nutmeg. Also, I made mini-muffins and get between 24-36 muffins. They cook in 15 minutes*
