Editorial Notes
The ingredient tips, suggestions, variations, facts, questions and answers below are not edits to the original author's recipe. They are not meant to imply any change would improve the recipe. They're offered for convenience, alternative ideas, and points of interest. If you have any comments about them, please post in the Help & Ideas forum.
- Make sure to use cold butter for the crumb topping to ensure the streusel is crumbly.
- If you don’t have unsalted butter, you can use salted butter and reduce the amount of salt used in the muffin batter.
- Substitute almond flour for all-purpose flour in the crumb topping for a nuttier flavor and added protein. This substitution will give the topping more texture and flavor, while also adding more nutritional value.
- Substitute coconut oil for butter in the muffins for a dairy-free alternative. Coconut oil is a healthier alternative to butter, and will give the muffins a subtle coconut flavor.
