Step 2
In a separate bowl mix together ingredients for topping. It should be crumbly. Spray muffin tin. Fill muffin tins until almost full, then sprinkle topping on the filling.
Step 3
The muffins do not rise up a lot and are so moist. You can use muffin liners if you like. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 30 to 35 minutes. Makes about 18 muffins.
⭐TIP
You can always use a buttermilk substitute if you don’t have buttermilk, but please know it WILL change the fat content of the recipe. Buttermilk has more fat in it than regular milk.
