Time 1h30m

Yield 10 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 19

1/2 cup old-fashioned oats
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons melted butter
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
3/4 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons heavy cream, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with 10 liners.
  • For the streusel: Stir together the oats, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a medium bowl to combine. Add the cold cubed butter and use your hands or a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles a clumpy streusel. Set aside.
  • For the cupcakes: In a medium bowl, whisk together the oil, melted butter and brown sugar until well combined, 1 minute. Add the eggs one at a time, and whisk until well combined. Whisk in the vanilla.
  • Add the flour, baking powder and cinnamon. Stir to combine with a spatula or spoon. Add the buttermilk and mix until the batter is smooth (do not overmix).
  • Use an ice cream scoop to divide the batter evenly between the cavities of the prepared pan. Top each generously with streusel.
  • Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 18 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For the glaze: Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, cream and vanilla in a small bowl until smooth -- add more cream if necessary to reach a drizzle-able consistency. Use a spoon to drizzle the glaze over the cooled cupcakes.
