*Originally posted on 10/12/14 – I have now updated this post with new photos + a VIDEO! I show you exactly how to make these Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake Muffins step-by-step! Scroll down just before the recipe to view.*

                                                                                                                                                             Happy Sunday everybody! Today we’re going pumpkin picking with some of our close friends. We go to the same place every year and our kids always have such a blast! Before I head out the door, I need to share this recipe with you guys. These are undoubtedly the best coffee cake muffins I have ever made. And I realllllly love these muffins. And these. But I just may love these even more because my obsession with cinnamon sugar lives on through these.

These muffins are really easy to throw together and SO delicious! I’m in love. These are always my go-to breakfast treat if we are having guests over. From the crumb topping to the gooey cinnamon swirl swirling through the center of each muffin, these are truly perfection. Coffee cake ironically has no coffee in it, isn’t that funny? It’s meant to be enjoyed with coffee on the side. Go figure!

When these come out of the oven, I can barely contain myself. Before letting them cool completely, I usually wind up burning my mouth off to eat one of them. You’ve heard it here –> no self control whatsoever for me!

Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake Muffins

Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients:

Muffins
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 tsp cinnamon
pinch salt
3/4 cup buttermillk
1/3 cup vegetable or canola oil
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
Crumb Topping
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 1/4 cups + 2 tbs all-purpose flour
Cinnamon Swirl
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tsp cinnamon
Vanilla Glaze
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3-5 tbs cream (if using milk, use less)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line muffin tin with paper liners, set aside.

In a large bowl, gently whisk flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and salt together. In a smaller bowl or large measuring cup, whisk buttermilk, oil, eggs and vanilla until completely combined. Make a well in the center of dry mixture and pour in liquid. Beat until fully combined. Batter will be slightly thick.

For the crumb topping, whisk together all dry ingredients in a separate bowl, then add the melted butter and stir until fully combined and crumbly.

In a small bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon.

Scoop 2 tbs of batter into each muffin tin. Place 1 tsp of cinnamon sugar mixture on top of each. Then, cover with more batter, filling them about 3/4 to the top. Sprinkle crumb topping between each muffin tin distributing evenly.

Bake muffins for 15-17 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out moist with a few crumbs. Allow them to cool in their pans for 10 minutes or until firm enough to handle before transferring to a wire rack to finish cooling completely.

While cooling, whisk together glaze ingredients. Drizzle on cooled muffins.

These muffins will keep for up to 4 days stored in an airtight container.

    This looks like a tasty recipe! As I made it, however, I noticed the crumb topping is a little strange-looking. Also, it made way too much. Is it perhaps supposed to say a quarter cup of flour rather than one and a quarter cups of flour? (Plus two tablespoons) Thanks!

      Nope, the proportions are correct. It makes a ton of topping because you’re supposed to really pack it on!
