New! Bakery-Style Coffee Cake Muffins (with Streusel!)


Hi Reader!

I love a brunch or breakfast item that serves itself, and that's these perfect sour cream coffee cake muffins!

These are a riff on my Classic Coffee Cake recipe. For this muffin recipe, I added a touch of oil to the muffin batter to keep them extra moist and a touch more flour to balance it out.

I'm in love with the texture of these!

With three components (four if you count the optional vanilla glaze), these muffins come together surprisingly quick.

The batter is completely low fuss, the streusel comes together in less than 5 minutes and can chill while you prep everything else.

I hope these beauties get to adorn your brunch table this weekend. Let me know what you think!

Wishing you the best!

PS How are we loving White Lotus this season?!

If you’ve ever struggled to get that iconic "hump" on your Madeleines, I have the 4-step solution for you: A cold batter, a hot oven, chilled madeleine pan and an overnight rest (not in this order!).

Hi Reader! 'Tis the season for the most fabulous cake we could ever ask for! Picture this: a breezy, one-bowl chocolate cake made with Guinness (or any malted beer). The crumb is light and bouncy, and the flavor is rich and chocolaty. This 9-inch (23-cm) round cake is mixed and baked in just 45 minutes (!!). Top it with my favorite 5-minute chocolate malt frosting, and it’s the perfect treat for March. Honestly, I make this cake year-round because it’s the perfect celebration cake—or simply a...
