Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 50 grams Brown sugar, packed
- 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 115 grams Unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Whisk the dry ingredients together until evenly combined and no clumps remain.
Pour the melted butter over the dry ingredients.
Using a fork, gently mix the ingredients until the mixture forms a crumbly texture. Be careful not to over-mix; you want distinct clumps of streusel.
At this point, the streusel is ready to be used as a topping for your baked goods.
Sprinkle the streusel evenly over your batter (for muffins, coffee cake, etc.) before baking.
Bake your chosen recipe as directed, allowing the streusel topping to become golden and slightly crisp.
Let cool before serving and enjoy the delightful buttery, cinnamon-sweet crunch!
