Ingredients
For the Cinnamon Muffins
- 2 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1½ 1½ teaspoons baking powder
- ½ ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter room temperature
- 1 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 2 large eggs
- 2 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- ½ ½ cup buttermilk or buttermilk substitute
For the Streusel Topping
- 1/2 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
- 1/4 1/4 cup (4 tablespoons ) butter room temperature
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375º F. Spray muffin tins with bakers spray or coat well with shortening or butter and flour, making sure to discard any excess flour from the tins after coating.
- Sift together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Cream together butter and sugar until lightened in color, about 3 minutes. Add an egg, one at a time, taking care to fully incorporate before adding the other. Mix in vanilla.
- Gently fold in flour mixture, alternating with milk. Stir until just combined. Scoop mixture into prepared muffin tins, filling about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
- For the topping, mix together brown sugar, flour, oats and butter until about pea-sized crumbles form. Top the muffin batter with the streusel topping.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick or skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
- Once muffins have baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly in the muffin tin. Then, remove each muffin to a serving plate or stand.
