"Found on a B&B website, credit given to Folkestone Inn. Very nice as a brunch offering - the topping makes them extra good! (And you will have lots of extra topping for future batches)."

Sorry, but our family found these to have a strange taste and texture. The topping was too floury. We actually threw them out! Sorry, just our opinion!

These muffins are very easy to make and have a great flavor. I love how the topping makes them a little sweeter and gives them a nice crunchy texture. I used soy yogurt in place of the sour cream and soy milk in place of the milk. I ended up with 15 large muffins. I also halved the topping ingredients still ended up with about 3 times as much as I needed. I guess I'll just have to make these again soon to use it up!
