Instructions
 

Muffin Batter

  • Preheat Oven and Prep Muffin Cups:

    Heat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare 6 jumbo muffin cups by lining them with paper liners or coating with cooking spray.
  • Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients:

    In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup sugar, baking powder, and salt by whisking. In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and oil. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just incorporated; avoid overmixing.
  • Fold in Cinnamon Chips and Fill Cups:

    Gently incorporate the cinnamon chips. Portion the batter evenly among the 6 muffin cups, filling each roughly 3/4 full.

Streusel Topping

  • Make Streusel Topping:

    To make the topping: In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and cinnamon. Cut in the softened butter until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Distribute the streusel evenly over the muffin batter.
  • Bake Muffins:

    Bake for 25 minutes, until the muffin tops spring back when lightly pressed.
  • Cool Muffins in Pan and on Rack:

    Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then move them to a wire rack to cool fully.
