  2. Whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, cloves, and salt in a bowl.

  4. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  5. Fill each muffin well about two-thirds full and gently tap the pan to eliminate air bubbles.

  8. Mix sugar and cinnamon for the coating. Melt butter in a bowl.
