Ingredients

Muffins

  • 4 tablespoon butter at room temperature
  • ¾ cups sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ¼ cups eggnog

Streusel

  • ½ cup sugar
  • ½ cup flour
  • 3 tablespoon melted unsalted butter
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Line a muffin pan with liners and spray lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
  • To make the muffins:
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter and sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the bowl after each addition.
  • Add the baking powder, nutmeg, salt, and vanilla extract to the bowl and mix until just combined.
  • Beginning and ending with the flour, alternate adding the flour and eggnog to the bowl, mixing at low speed, just until each ingredient is incorporated.
  • Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups.
  • To make the topping:
  • Use a fork to combine all of the ingredients just until the mixture is crumbly.
  • If you mix too much, it will form into a cohesive ball, not a crumbly topping.
  • Sprinkle the topping evenly over the batter.
  • Bake 16-20 minutes, or until the topping is turning golden-brown and the muffins are cooked through.
  • Allow to cool for a few minutes in the pan, then transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool before serving.
