COFFEE CAKE MUFFINS

The BEST coffee cake muffins recipe made with Greek yogurt and topped with a cinnamon streusel topping and sweet vanilla glaze. So easy!

Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Breakfast

Time 38m

Number Of Ingredients 23

2/3 cup whole milk (at room temperature)
1/4 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt (at room temperature)
2 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs (at room temperature)
5 tablespoons canola oil or light olive oil
1/4 cup honey
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Zest of 1 small lemon
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
5 tablespoons cold unsalted butter (cut into small pieces)
2/3 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat a standard 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray or fit the cups with paper liners and coat the liners with nonstick spray (I find these muffins work best with liners, but if you don't have any on hand, they'll still turn out OK).
  • Start the muffins: In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the milk and Greek yogurt. Set aside for 5 minutes.
  • Make the streusel: In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1:1 flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and allspice. Add the butter and working quickly with your fingers, rub the butter into the dry ingredients until you are left with irregular crumbs. The dry ingredients should all feel moist; some crumbs will be like crumbs of wet sand; other crumbs can be as large as small peas. Place the mixture in the refrigerator.
  • Return to the muffins: In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1:1 flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and salt.
  • To the bowl with the milk mixture, add the eggs, oil, honey, vanilla extract, and lemon zest (if using). Whisk until well blended.
  • Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients. With a rubber spatula, stir quickly but gently to combine, stopping as soon as the flour disappears. It will look a little lumpy.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling them no more than 3/4 of the way to the top.
  • Remove the streusel from the refrigerator and scatter the crumbs over the top of the muffins (use it all!).
  • Bake the muffins for 18 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean. Place the muffin pan on a wire rack and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Gently remove the muffins from the pan (a butter knife can help) and place them on the wire rack to cool completely. Do not let them sit in the muffin pan for longer than 5 minutes, or they may become soggy. The muffins will be very delicate at first but will firm up as they rest.
  • Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Drizzle over the top of the cooled muffins. Enjoy!

Glazed Strawberry Jam-Filled Coffee Cake image

Sneak a layer of strawberry jam into the sour cream coffee cake, sprinkle on the crumb topping and drizzle with an easy glaze.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of fine salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more, for the pan
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
2/3 cup strawberry jam
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Put the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl and stir to combine. Add the butter and mix thoroughly with your fingers or a fork until all of the butter has been evenly distributed and incorporated into the flour. Form into small to medium clumps with your fingers.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch square cake pan.
  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small bowl.
  • Beat together the butter and granulated sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and add the flour mixture in 3 batches, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour, beating until just incorporated.
  • Spoon half of the cake batter (it will be very thick) into the prepared pan and smooth with an offset spatula. Dollop the strawberry jam on top and carefully smooth with the spatula. Spoon the remaining cake batter on top and smooth the top. Sprinkle on the crumb topping.
  • Bake until the cake and topping are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean, about 1 hour. Let cool in the pan 20 minutes, then invert onto a plate; invert back onto a rack to cool completely.
  • When the cake is cool, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and milk in a medium bowl until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the cake and let set.

Spread out mixture on parchment paper to dry until ready to use. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk together milk, canola oil and eggs. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist. Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin tray. Sprinkle with reserved crumb topping, using your fingertips to gently press the crumbs into the batter. Place into oven and bake for 15-17 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. To make the glaze, combine 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. Allow glaze to set before serving.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream. Use unsalted butter to control the amount of salt in the recipe.
  • If you don't have a food processor to make the crumb topping, you can use a pastry blender or two forks to combine the ingredients.
  • Be sure to chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the muffins hold their shape and rise properly.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough muffins.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise without overflowing.
  • Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry muffins.
  • Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:

These jam-filled crumb-topped coffee cake muffins are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or snack time. With their tender crumb, sweet jam filling, and crunchy crumb topping, these muffins are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
