Muffins. Frequent readers of this blog will know about my obsession with these baked goods and my constant search for killer recipes to add to my collection. So when I discovered Baker Street had started an initiative where a group of talented and just plain ol’ lovely foodies whip up a different muffin recipe each week and share the results, I was a little excited. Finally – I had found my people!

This week’s recipe comes from Martha Stewart, and is a real treat that combines the flavour profile of coffee cake in the form of a muffin making it perfect for special occasion brunches. The recipe itself is straightforward and comes together quickly, resulting in an incredibly moist cake-like batter with a cinnamon spiced streusel topping.

Both my five year-old and myself had a blast whipping up these muffins! We used half the batter to create large muffins (with a secret layer of streusel in the middle) as well as mini muffins that were the perfect size for an important afternoon tea party.

To be honest, I preferred the mini versions of these muffins. They were the perfect snack size bite that reminded me of those famous mini doughnuts. Seriously – what’s not to love?!
