Baked Cinnamon Muffin Bites!

Every Saturday morning I make breakfast for my little family. 

It's the only morning of the week I'm home, otherwise I'm teaching or waitressing Sunday am breakfast.

I usually make a big deal of it but since I was home all week making breakfast over vacation, I wanted something a little more special that potatoes and eggs or chocolate chip pancakes.

A quick recipe search gave me:

Cinnamon Muffins Recipe

from Taste of Home.

Ingredients

1/3 cup shortening

1/2 cup sugar

1 egg

1 1/2 all-purpose flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 cup milk

TOPPING:

1/2 cup sugar

11/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

3 tablespoons butter, melted

• 
  
• Directions

• In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk until well combined.

• Fill greased muffin cups half full. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

• Add butter to a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Dip muffin tops in butter, then in cinnamon-sugar. Serve warm. 

And my final product:

I think they were wonderful and the whole plate of almost 30 was gone in 10 minutes.

The recipe says it makes a dozen but I made mine more "bite size" and got a lot more!

Enjoy!
