1 cup flour
1 3/4 tsp baking powder
pinch salt
---
1/2 stick butter, melted
1 large egg, room temp
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
----
3/4 stick butter, melted
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour
---
optional: chopped pecans
Preheat oven to 350F. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
Whisk together butter, egg, sugar, sour cream, and milk in a large bowl; blend in flour mixture until just combined (will be lumpy). Line muffin tins with papers and pour 2/3 full.
For the topping, whisk together the remaining butter, sugars, and cinnamon until smooth. Add flour and blend with a pasty cutter to form large crumbs about the size of a pea, adding more flour as needed to get a crumbly texture. Sprinkle on top of muffins. Top with a teaspoon of pecans if desired, and press lightly so that the streusel sinks into the batter a little.
Bake on middle rack of oven at 350F for 18-22 minutes (depending on your oven), or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, taking care not to overbake. Best served warm!
Makes about 12 muffins or 24 mini-muffins.
