Servings 6 muffins

Ingredients

  • 1 egg
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoon oil avocado or olive
  • 2 tablespoon butter melted
  • 3 tablespoon milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 gluten free flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon Ceylon

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 4 oz cream cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 3 tablespoon sugar

Crumble Topping

  • ½ cup Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1 gluten free flour
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 ½ teaspoon cinnamon Ceylon
  • ¼ cup butter

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F and place liners in a 6 count large muffin tin.
  • In a stand mixer mix together the egg, sugars, yogurt, oil, butter, milk, and vanilla extract.
  • In a second bowl whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and spices.
  • With the stand mixer on a low speed slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet.
  • Once the batter has come together divide it between the 6 muffin liners.
  • In another bowl combine the cream cheese, egg and sugar. Mix until combined, it will be a little lumpy, that's fine. Spoon this mixture on top of the batter.
  • In another bowl combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and butter to make the crumble. The ingredients will become a wet sand-like consistency. Grab a handful and squeeze it into a log like shape, then crumble the log over the cream cheese layer in the muffin liners until all the crumble is used.
  • Bake the muffins for 25-30 minutes until the centers are fully set. If you stick a toothpick into a muffin to check, be aware that the cream cheese layer will always stick to the toothpick.
  • Let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
