what do you do when you stay home from school with pink eye and have a whole day full of, well, nothing?
You post a recipe.

cinnamon mini-muffins


Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 cup skim milk
1/3 cup butter/margarine, melted


Topping:
2 tblsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter/margarine, melted


Directions:
Pre-heat oven to 400º. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. In a separate bowl, combine egg, milk, and butter/margarine; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients until just moistened. Spoon batter into greased or paper-lined mini muffin cups. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Brush melted butter on to muffin tops and dust with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Enjoy! I certainly did :) Oh, and you will probably be left with some flour-sugar-baking powder-salt-etc. mixture, because you're only supposed to add as much of it to the wet ingredients until that batter is the right consistency :/

And if you end up making these, post about it and leave me a link to the post, I'd love to see how it turns out for you and the pictures!
