Cinnamon Streusel Muffins with Vanilla Glaze are soft, bakery-style muffins with a buttery cinnamon crumb topping and a sweet vanilla glaze – perfect for breakfast or a cozy snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Muffins:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • For the Streusel Topping:
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • For the Vanilla Glaze:
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1–2 tbsp milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir until just combined – do not overmix.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  6. For the streusel, mix brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over each muffin.
  7. Bake for 18–22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
  8. While muffins cool, make the glaze by whisking powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over cooled muffins.

Notes

  • Use sour cream or yogurt in place of some milk for extra moisture.
  • Muffins can be frozen without glaze for up to 2 months.
  • Double the streusel for a crunchier topping.
