A recipe from Deb Curran of Inn on the Beach

Joe and Deb Curran have had the opportunity to travel to many countries around the world and have made it a point in their travels to experience the more intimate accommodations of smaller inns, bed and breakfasts and boutique hotels. From those experiences they decided to one day become innkeepers themselves.

When the opportunity arose for them to purchase a small “ocean front inn” on Nantucket Sound they were excited to delve into the hospitality field. Many upgrades to the inn took place within the five months after purchase, with many more to come.

The experience has been amazing thus far. They have met so many wonderful professionals within the industry and the guests, former and recent have made their transition into the field of hospitality and inn keeping one in which they will cherish for many years to come.

Ingredients

These muffins are a favorite of my family. They are tender and moist with subtle hints of fresh ground cinnamon and nutmeg. They are easy to make and the ingredients are readily available in all kitchens.

1/2 cup white sugar

1 1/2 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp fresh ground nutmeg

dash of cinnamon

1/8 tsp salt

1 egg, lightly beaten

1/2 cup milk

1/3 cup of melted butter

1/2 tsp of vanilla

Coating for muffins

1/4 cup of white sugar

1/2 tsp cinnamon

1/8 tsp nutmeg

1/3 cup of melted butter

Directions

Preheat oven to 375*
Liberally grease muffin tins
In medium bowl, combine all dry ingredients…stir until dry mix is incorporated together.

In a small bowl, combine egg, milk, vanilla and melted butter. Mix together.

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour liquid into it. Stir together dry and wet until moistened. Batter will be lumpy. Bake 20 minutes remove from oven and when cool enough to handle dip the muffin into the butter and then roll in the cinnamon/nutmeg/sugar mixture.
