- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, milk, sugar, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until thoroughly combined.
Step 3
Add the cinnamon, nutmeg, flour, baking powder, and salt into the wet mixture. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
Step 4
Fold in the raisins (if using) for added sweetness and texture.
Step 5
Scoop the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
