Bakery-Style Coffee Cake Muffins

Bakery-Style Coffee Cake Muffins are moist, flavorful, and topped with plenty of buttery crumbs. This is one of those recipes you’ll make over and over again!

So this recipe was inspired by the giant muffins I always find myself lusting after at the coffee shop or corner bakery. You know the ones I’m talking about, right? With the crumbs and the glaze and the cinnamon swirl and THE CRUMBS. The ones that smell so buttery it makes your heart flutter and your knees buckle! Yeah, those. They’re so good!

Ingredients

For the Buttery Crumb Topping:

• 1/2 cup (57g/2 ounces) all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup (50g/1 and 3/4 ounces) granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup (57g/2 ounces) unsalted butter, melted
• For the Cinnamon Sugar Swirl:
• 1/3 cup (50g/1 and 3/4 ounces) granulated sugar
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

For the Muffins:

• 3 cups (361g/12 and 3/4 ounces) all-purpose flour
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup (113g/4 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 cup (198g/7 ounces) granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup (53g/1 and 7/8 ounces) light brown sugar, packed
• 2 large eggs plus 1 egg yolk, at room temperature
• 1 and 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup (113g/4 ounces) buttermilk

For the Glaze:

• 1 cup (113g/4 ounces) confectioners' sugar, sifted
• 2 to 3 Tablespoons buttermilk

• 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

For the Buttery Crumb Topping:

• In a medium mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in the melted butter, mixing just until combined. Set aside while you prepare the rest of the recipe. The mixture will absorb the butter as it sits and become more crumbly by the time you’re ready to use it.

For the Cinnamon Sugar Layer:

• In a small mixing bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.

For the Muffins:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Line a 12 cup muffin tin with paper liners and set it aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
