These tasted great and were easy to make. The addition of nutmeg gives these muffins a truly unique taste. One suggesstion I would make would be to double the recipe if you want 12 muffins beacause I was thinking that the recipe would make 12 muffins since the serving size says 12 but I ended up with only 6 muffins. I topped half with butter and half with orange marmalade - both tasted great. Thanks for the recipe ladypit!
