Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 0.33 cups All-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (for streusel)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, softened (for streusel)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or lightly grease the tin.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 0.75 cups granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 0.5 teaspoons salt.
In a separate medium bowl, combine 0.75 cups of milk, 0.5 cups melted unsalted butter, 2 large eggs, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until fully blended.
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently folding until just combined. Do not overmix. The batter will be slightly lumpy.
To make the streusel topping, whisk together 0.5 cups brown sugar, 0.33 cups all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Add 4 tablespoons of softened unsalted butter and mix with a fork until crumbly.
Spoon the muffin batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 3/4 full.
Sprinkle the streusel topping over the batter, pressing it lightly into the top of each muffin.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy your delicious homemade cinnamon streusel muffins!
