Ingredients
For the Dry Mix:
- 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
For the Wet Mix:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature done
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or olive oil done
- 1/2 cup white granulated sugar done
- 1/3 cup brown sugar done
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
- Scant 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk
For the Chocolate Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- Pinch of salt
- 3 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with liners and set aside.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream the butter, vegetable oil, white sugar, brown sugar, nutmeg and cinnamon together until light and fluffy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Next, add the eggs and vanilla extract and mix until thoroughly combined.
-
Add a quarter of the flour to the butter mixture, and then add a quarter of the milk. Repeat this process until everything is completely combined.
-
Fill the prepared muffin liners, filling them up three-quarters full. Transfer to the oven for 15 to 17 minutes, or until they're lightly golden brown and when a cake tester inserted into the middle of the muffins come out clean.
-
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for a minute or two, and then transfer them to a rack to cool completely.
-
While the muffins are cooling, let's make the glaze! In a medium bowl, sift in the powdered sugar, cocoa powder and salt. Pour in the milk and vanilla extract; whisk until completely smooth. Dunk the muffins into the glaze and then top with sprinkles.
