Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Muffins:
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • For the Cinnamon Swirl:
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • For the Streusel Topping:
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with 12 liners or grease lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and sugars.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, eggs, Greek yogurt, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the swirl ingredients: brown sugar and cinnamon.
  6. Fill each muffin cup halfway with batter. Sprinkle a little cinnamon-sugar swirl, then top with more batter.
  7. In another bowl, mix the streusel ingredients until crumbly. Sprinkle on top of each muffin.
  8. Bake for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Use vanilla or honey-flavored Greek yogurt for extra sweetness.
  • These muffins freeze well—cool completely and store in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
  • Optional: drizzle with a simple glaze of powdered sugar and milk once cooled.
