Found these little gems on Pinterest. Did some small adjustments to the original recipe and found that we had a keeper. The boys loved them! I have to admit they are wonderful with a nice cup of fresh brewed hot coffee. Best part is they are not fried!

Yield 12 Muffins

Number Of Ingredients 17

Ingredients

1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
3/4 teaspoon vanilla
2 tablespoons hot water

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
Lightly grease a standard muffin tin or line with 12 paper muffin cups and grease the cups with non-stick vegetable oil spray; this will ensure that the paper cups peel off the muffins nicely.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
Add the eggs, beating to combine.
Stir in the baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla.
Stir the flour into the butter mixture alternately with the milk, beginning and ending with the flour, and making sure everything is thoroughly combined.
Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared pan, filling the cups nearly full.
Bake the muffins for 15 to 17 minutes, or until they're a pale golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the middle of one of the center muffins comes out clean.
In a medium bowl, prepare the glaze by mixing together the melted butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla and hot water. Whisk until smooth.
When muffins have cooled slightly, dip the muffin crown into the glaze and allow the glaze to harden. At this point, you can leave them as is or go for the double dip. I glazed my muffins twice.
Serve warm, or cool on a rack and wrap airtight.
Muffins will keep at room temperature for about a day.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients. Fresh eggs, milk, and butter will give your muffins a better flavor and texture.
Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the muffins tough.
Fill the muffin cups only 2/3 full. This will prevent the muffins from overflowing.
Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the muffins dry.
Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This will help to prevent the muffins from sticking to the pan.
Dip the muffins in the glaze while they are still warm. This will help the glaze to adhere to the muffins.
Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. You can also freeze the muffins for up to 2 months.
