   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   3               cups  all-purpose flour
      1/2           cup  sugar
   3          teaspoons  baking powder
      1/2      teaspoon  salt
      1/2      teaspoon  ground nutmeg
   1                     egg
   1 3/4           cups  eggnog
      1/2           cup  canola oil
      1/2           cup  golden raisins
      1/2           cup  chopped pecans

This scrumptious muffins are chock-full of pecans and raisins.

Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

In a large bowl, combine the first five ingredients. In another bowl, 
combine the egg, eggnog and oil; stir into dry ingredients just until 
moistened. Fold in raisins and pecans. Fill greased or paper-lined 
muffin cups two-thirds full.

Bake at 350F for 20 to 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out 
clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Editor's Note: This recipe was tested with commercially prepared eggnog.

Review: I usually double the nutmeg in the muffins to give them more 
flavor. They are easy to overbake because the tops don't get as brown 
as muffins usually do. Contrary to most muffins, they are even better 
the next day.

Review: Used frozen cranberries for the raisins and walnuts for the 
pecans - tossed both in 1/4 cup flour (to prevent sinking) before 
folding them into the batter.

Review: This recipe is very quick and easy and perfect for a rushed 
day. I made mini muffins instead of full sized and substituted dried 
cranberries for the raisins. Very good.
