Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 c Flour
1 3/4 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 ts Allspice
1/4 ts Nutmeg
1/2 c Sugar
1/3 c Margarine
1 Egg, slightly beaten
1/4 c Milk
10 oz Mandarin orange tin, drained
TOPPING (optional)
1/4 c Melted butter
1/4 c Sugar
1/2 ts Cinnamon

Note: tin of broken segments is less expensive than
whole segments. About a cup of fresh orange pieces
could be used.

Sift flour with other dry ingredients. Cut in
Margarine. Combine egg and milk, and add all at once
to dry ingredients -- mix only until moistened.

Fold in orange pieces and break them up more if batter
seems to dry at first. Fill greased muffin tins 3/4
full.

Bake at 350F for 20 to 25 minutes.

Remove from muffin tins while still warm. Dip tops in
melted butter and sugar-cinnamon mixture. Makes 12
large muffins.
