Spiced Brown-Sugar Cinnamon French Breakfast Puffs

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves. Stir and set aside.

3. 3

   In another bowl, cream together the 1 cup white sugar and shortening.

4. 4

   Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.

5. 5

   Dump in 1/3 of the flour mixture, mix well, and then 1/3 of the milk. Continue alternating between additions and mix well.

6. 6

   Fill greased muffins tins about 2/3 full with the batter and bake for 20 - 25 minutes or until lightly golden. Let puffs sit about 5 minutes before continuing.

7. 7

   In a pie plate, melt the butter. In another pie plate, mix together the brown and white sugars, cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg.

8. 8

   Dunk puffs in the butter and then roll in the cinnamon mixture.

   Set on a cooling rack on top of a baking sheet (to catch all of the drippies!) and either serve warm or cool awhile and then store in an airtight container. Enjoy!
