Ingredients
Muffins
1 3/4 cups of flour
3/4 cups of white sugar (or preferred sugar substitute)
1 1/2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1 cup of plant-based milk
Cinnamon Streusel
1/3 cup of flour (or mix if you don't have)
1/3 cup of packed brown sugar (or dark sugar substitute)
1 tablespoon of cinnamon
3 tablespoons of plant-based butter or coconut oil
Glaze
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1-2 tablespoons of plant-based milk
Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F and line a 12-muffin pan with either oil or cupcake/muffin liners.
Step 2
Add the Mix and sugar to a medium bowl. Gently stir in the vanilla extract and plant-based milk until everything comes together — be careful not to overmix. Set aside.
Step 3
In a small bowl, mix together the flour (or Mix), brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the melted butter and stir until everything comes together and the streusel starts to form small, buttery clumps.
Step 4
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the muffin batter into each liner. Then crumble the streusel on top. Now add around 2 more tablespoons of batter and a bit more streusel on top. Repeat for remaining muffins.
Step 5
Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for the around 15-18 minutes (can cook a bit longer for crunchier crust on top). Remove the muffins and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack (around 10-15 minutes).
Step 6
To make the glaze, combine the powdered sugar and vanilla, then slowly whisk in the plant-based milk. Continue whisking (or use a hand mixer) until smooth and glossy — thick but still easy to pour.
Step 7
Drizzle the glaze over the muffins, then serve, and enjoy!
