Equipment

  • muffin tin
  • Muffin liners

Ingredients
  

Filling

  • 0.25 cup brown sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons cinnamon

Streusel

  • 2 tablespoons butter melted
  • 0.33 cup brown sugar
  • 0.33 cup gluten free all purpose baking flour
  • 1.5 teaspoons cinnamon

Muffins

  • 0.5 cup butter
  • 0.75 cup white sugar
  • 0.5 cup greek yogurt
  • 3 tablespoons milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1.75 cups gluten free all purpose baking flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon

Glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a 12 cavity muffin tin with liners and set aside.
  • In a small dish, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling and set aside.
  • In a second dish, mix together all ingredients for the streusel until crumbly and well combined. Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar. Add in the eggs, greek yogurt, milk and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
  • Whisk in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon until smooth.
  • Scoop about 1 ½ tablespoons of batter into each muffin tin. Sprinkle each with the cinnamon sugar filling. Top with the remaining muffin batter. Use the back of the spoon to spread smooth- it helps to grease the spoon a bit.
  • Top each muffin with the streusel, about 1 ½- 2 tablespoons on each.
  • Bake on the middle rack for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. let cool in the muffin tin for about 15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack until fully cooled.
  • Whisk together the ingredients for the glaze, adding more milk as needed to thin. Once the muffins have cooled, drizzle on top. Enjoy!

Notes

I used Bob's Red Mill 1:1 flour, but King Arthur also works great!
