Miniature French breakfast puffs are a type of pastry that is made from flour, eggs, butter, and milk. They are typically served with a sweet or savory filling, such as jam or cheese.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottoms of 48 small muffin cups. Mix shortening, 1/2 c sugar, and egg thoroughly. Sift together flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. Stir flour mixture and milk alternately into sugar/shortening mixture. Fill greased muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake 15 minutes or until golden brown. Dip immediately in melted butter, then in mixture of cinnamon/sugar. Serve hot.
