Ingredients
For the Muffin:

1 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup Hiland Dairy Eggnog
1 stick (½ cup) butter, melted and cooled slightly

How to Make Eggnog Muffins
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and line a muffin tin with paper liners. (makes 12 muffins).
In a medium bowl, add the 2 ¼ cup flour, 1 cup sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon nutmeg and whisk together. Set aside.
In a large bowl, add the 2 eggs, 1 cup Hiland Eggnog, 1 stick melted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Whisk together until combined. Add the flour mixture to the eggnog mixture and mix by hand just until combined and you cannot see any more flour streaks. Scoop the muffin batter into the liners about ¾ full.
Streusel- In a small bowl, combine the ⅓ cup flour, ⅓ cup sugar and 1 teaspoon nutmeg. Add the 2 tablespoons of cold butter and use your hands to mix the butter into the flour mixture. It needs to end up being the consistency of gravel.
Generously sprinkle the streusel mixture evenly over all the muffins. Bake at 375 degrees for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While the muffins are baking, make the Eggnog glaze. In a small bowl, add the 1 cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon vanilla and ¼ cup Hiland Eggnog. Whisk together until smooth, set aside.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let cool for about 15 minutes. Drizzle the Eggnog glaze over each muffin. Dig in and enjoy!
Tips for the Best Eggnog Muffins
Use Full-Fat Eggnog: For the richest flavor, opt for full-fat eggnog. Hiland Dairy has the best, most flavorful Eggnog.
Don’t Overmix: Overmixing the batter can lead to dense muffins.
Adjust the Glaze Consistency: Add more eggnog for a thinner glaze or more powdered sugar for a thicker glaze.
Storage and Freezing Instructions
Store: Keep muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Freeze: Wrap muffins individually in plastic wrap and store in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature before serving.
