Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

Instructions:
-
Prepare the Batter:
Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your mini-muffin pans lightly to prevent sticking. In a mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar, and beat them together until creamy and well incorporated. Add in the egg and beat until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. -
Incorporate Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the flour, salt, and nutmeg to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until all the ingredients are fully combined and you have a smooth batter. -
Fill the Muffin Pans:
Spoon the batter into the greased mini-muffin pans, filling each cavity about two-thirds full. This should yield approximately 24 puffs, depending on the size of your pans. -
Bake to Perfection:
Place the filled muffin pans in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. -
Coat with Sweetness:
While the puffs are still warm from the oven, carefully remove them from the pans. Dip each puff into the melted butter, ensuring it’s coated on all sides. Then, roll the butter-coated puff in the mixture of sugar and cinnamon until evenly coated. -
Serve and Enjoy:
Arrange the coated puffs on a serving platter and serve them warm. These French Breakfast Puffs are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven, alongside your favorite hot beverage.
