Coffee Cake Muffins

Description

Always a fan of coffee cake muffins, but tired of paying more than $2.50 every morning for a half-decent one (over $15 per week), I decided to create a recipe for home. It is imperative that you use whole milk and that you carefully fold the ingredients together to have the right consistency for your muffins.

Ingredients

  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup white sugar

  • 4 ½ tablespoons brown sugar

  6. and salt together in a large bowl.

  12. Combine flour

  15. brown sugar
  16. pumpkin pie spice
  17. and salt for the topping in a bowl; mix until crumbly. Add a generous amount on top of each muffin.

  19. 20 to 30 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
