New Jersey Crumb Cake Muffins
Here's what you'll need:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/3 cup canola oil
- 2 large eggs
Crumb Topping:
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/3 cup light brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Icing Drizzle:
- 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon milk
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees, and adjust your baking rack to the middle of the oven.
- Take out a muffin tin and place your paper liners or coat with cooking spray.
- Begin by making the crumb topping and mix together the sugars, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl.
- Slowly whisk in the melted butter until combined.
- Next, add in the flour with a rubber spatula just until moist.
- Spread the mixture out on parchment paper to dry until ready to use.
- Up next, the muffin batter. In a large bowl combine your dry ingredients including the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together your wet ingredients including the milk, canola oil and egg.
- Pour the wet mixture over the dry, and mix using a rubber spatula until moist.
- Scoop the batter into the muffin pan. Top each cup with the crumb topping, and using your fingertips to gently press the crumbs into the batter.
- Place into oven and bake for 15-17 minutes.
- While they bake, make the glaze by combining the confectioners’ sugar, vanilla and milk. Whisk until smooth. (If the glaze is too thin, add more confectioners’ sugar as needed.)
- When the muffins are done, cool for 10 minutes and drizzle the glaze on each muffin.
I got the recipe for these muffins from Damndelicious.net, and damn delicious they were.
