Copycat Mimi's Cafe Buttermilk Spice Muffins

"These Buttermilk Spice Muffins are reminiscent of Mimi's Cafe. They have lovely domed tops and a sugary topping. They are the perfect breakfast or quick snack."

NotesIf you prefer jumbo muffins, the recipe will yield six. Lower oven temperature to 325 degrees F and cook an additional 5-10 min until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
