For an extra touch, sprinkle the tops of the muffins with a little extra nutmeg or chopped walnuts before baking. If you prefer a non-alcoholic version, you can substitute the rum with an equal amount of apple cider or additional eggnog. These muffins are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a 12-cup muffin tin by lining it with paper liners or greasing it well. (5 minutes)
02
StepIn a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt. Stir in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed. (5 minutes)
03
StepIn a separate bowl, whisk together the eggnog, melted butter, dark rum, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. (3 minutes)
04
StepGently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy. (2 minutes)
05
StepDivide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full. (2 minutes)
06
StepBake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. (18 minutes)
07
StepLet the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (10 minutes)
