directions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • Mix muffin batter ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed for two minutes or until smooth.
  • Spray muffin tin with nonstick spray and fill with batter nearly to the top (because these are so moist, they rise very little).
  • Mix together streusel ingredients until crumbly. Top each muffin with some streusel. (You can freeze any leftover streusel to use next time).
  • Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.
  • Note: If using SuperMoist Cinnamon Swirl Cake Mix, swirl the cinnamon packet into batter after mixed and omit cinnamon and ginger from muffin batter.

  1. Great muffins!! Moist, tasty and unbelievably light. Three out of five people who tasted them asked for the recipe.
     
  2. These muffins were very moist and very tasty. I used french vanilla cake mix and only cooked them for 20 mins. They came out perfect. The streusel topping is wonderful on these muffins. Thanks for sharing.

  1. I baked this in a sheet pan for 15 min and it was great. I put a glaze on half for my parents but I did not think it was needed
