In a medium skillet, melt butter and cook green onions and garlic until tender but not browned. Add carrots; cook about 2 minutes more until tender crisp. Remove from heat. In a large bowl, stir together eggs, cheese, cornmeal, basil, nutmeg and pepper. Stir in carrot mixture. Spray 20 or 24 (4 cm) (1 1/2 inch) muffin cups with vegetable spray. Spoon about 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the carrot mixture into each muffin cup. Bake in a 160 C (325 F) oven for 15 minutes or until set. Let stand for 2 minutes. Remove from pans. Serve hot.
