1
Preheat oven to 375°F and coat a standard 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick vegetable oil spray.
2
In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, kosher salt, and ground nutmeg. Set aside.
3
Using an electric mixer, beat the room temperature unsalted butter and 3/4 cup sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.
4
Beat in the large egg.
5
With the mixer on low speed, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the whole milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
6
Divide the batter among the muffin cups and bake, rotating the pan halfway through, until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 30–35 minutes.
7
Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the pan before transferring them to a wire rack.
8
Prepare the topping by mixing 1/2 cup sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a medium bowl.
9
Working one at a time, dip the tops of the muffins in the melted unsalted butter, then coat them with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
10
If not serving immediately, muffins can be stored tightly wrapped at room temperature for up to 6 hours.
