Ingredients

Muffins

  • 1/3 cup butter, softened

  • 1/2 cup cane sugar

  • 2 eggs

  • 3/4 cup buttermilk or milk

  • 1/4 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 2 teaspoons baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda

  • 2 cups Fruit of choice (berries or chopped fruit)

Crumb Topping

 
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar

  • 1/4 cup butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a muffin tin with liners or cooking spray.

  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and cane sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

  3. Stir in the milk, sour cream or yogurt, and vanilla until combined.

  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix just until combined.

  5. Gently fold in the fruit.

  6. To make the crumb topping, combine the flour, sugar, brown sugar, and butter in a small bowl. Use your fingers or a fork to work the butter in until crumbly.

  7. Divide the batter evenly between the muffin cups and sprinkle the crumb topping generously over each.

  8. Bake for 20–25 minutes, until the muffins are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool slightly before removing from the pan.
