Pam's Coffee Cake Muffins With Cinnamon Crumble Top

Name: Pam's Coffee Cake Muffins With Cinnamon Crumble Topping
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups Carbquik baking mix; 3 scoops vanilla protein powder (I used Body Fortress); ¼ cup Splenda sugar substitute; 4 tablespoons I Can't Believe It's Not Butter; ½ cup milk; 2 teaspoons vanilla; 3 eggs; 1 teaspoon baking powder; 2 tablespoons I Can't Believe It's Not Butter; ⅓ cup flour (I used white, but you can use whole wheat if you have it); 1 scoop vanilla protein powder; 2 tablespoons splenda brown sugar; 1 tablespoon cinnamon

Servings: persons

2 cups Carbquik baking mix
3 scoops vanilla protein powder (I used Body Fortress)
¼ cup Splenda sugar substitute
4 tablespoons I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
½ cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons I Can't Believe It's Not Butter
⅓ cup flour (I used white, but you can use whole wheat if you have it)
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
2 tablespoons splenda brown sugar
1 tablespoon cinnamon

1
Preheat oven to 350-degrees.
2
Spray muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.
3
Add all cake ingredients together and mix well.
4
Drop by spoonful into muffin tin filling each muffin cup almost to the top.
5
Set aside (leaving it sit for a few minutes will allow the batter to expand and the baking powder to activate).
6
Mix Cinnamon Crumble ingredients together, cutting in the ICBINB to the dry ingredients to create a crumbly mixture.
7
Spoon equal amounts of the topping onto each muffin.
8
Then with a knife poke each muffin a few times to help dig the crumble topping down into the batter (I like my cinnamon topping to be down into the muffin a bit as well as sitting on top).
9
Bake at 350-degrees for 15 minutes or until Coffee Cake Muffins just turn golden brown.
10
Eat one immediately while it's piping hot out of the oven and let it burn your tongue a little bit - it's a heavenly experience.
11
You can save the rest for later and even share with the family if you want (but you're not required to share!
12

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
