Spiced Oatmeal Muffins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick spray, or use paper cupcake liners.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg thoroughly. Beat in milk and oil until well blended.

In a separate large bowl, mix together sugar, spices, oats and Bisquick. Add the liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing just until all dry ingredients are moistened — batter will be lumpy. Do not over-mix! This creates a tough, “peaked” muffin.

Fill muffin cups about 1/2 to 2/3 full. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes, until muffins are golden brown. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes.

In a small, microwave safe bowl, melt 1/4 cup butter in the microwave – start with 30 seconds and stir and heat for additional 30 second increments until butter is melted. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, mix together 1/4 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. Set aside.

Remove a muffin from the tin, and dip the top into the melted butter. Then, roll the top in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Repeat for all remaining muffins.

Serve warm with coffee or tea, for a delightful snack!
