  2. Combine your melted butter and canola oil in a large bowl. Stir well.
  3. Add sugar and stir to combine.
  4. Add egg, egg white, and vanilla extract. Stir very well, until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.  Add buttermilk and stir.
  5. In a separate, medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, corn starch, cinnamon and salt.
  6. Using a spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet, taking care not to over-mix the batter (which will make your muffins dense and tougher).
  7. Evenly divide the batter into prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about ⅔ of the way full. Set aside and prepare your streusel topping.
