This week, Kayte of Grandma’s Kitchen Table chose Allspice Crumb Muffins, pages 16-17 of Baking: From My Home to Yours.
I got 11 muffins out of the recipe. And used 13 Tablespoons of butter. That’s over a tablespoon of butter per muffin. When my husband bit into one, his first comment was, “There’s a lot of butter in these, isn’t there?” I refer to it as a comment, because his tone of voice indicated it was a declaratory statement, not really a question.
To which I responded, “Why, yes. Yes, there is.”
One tip: don’t skip the lemon zest; it adds a lot to these muffins.
Butter, brown sugar, and allspice. Lovely allspice. What more is there to say, other than, “Yum,” and be sure to check out the blogroll?

Yes, these were quite buttery weren’t they? It seems a lot of people had success subbing for the butter, though so I’m going to try that next time. Your muffins look terrific!
