Ingredients
Muffin Batter
- 2.1 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 0.25 tsp baking soda
- 0.5 tsp fine salt
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon optional but tasty
- 0.75 cup milk whole or 2%
- 0.5 cup sour cream or plain Greek yogurt
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- 2 large eggs
- 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups cherry pie filling, roughly chopped drain excess gel for best texture
Crumble Topping
- 0.67 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.33 cup packed light brown sugar
- 0.25 tsp ground cinnamon
- 0.12 tsp fine salt
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tbsp turbinado sugar for extra crunch on top
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Heat oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan and lightly mist liners.
- Whisk flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a large bowl.
- In another bowl, whisk milk, sour cream, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla until smooth.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry. Stir gently until just combined; a few flour streaks are fine.
- Fold in half the chopped cherry filling, keeping the batter slightly streaky.
- Make the crumble: Combine flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir in melted butter until clumpy. Mix in turbinado sugar.
- Divide batter among cups, about two-thirds full. Spoon a little more cherry filling on each and swirl lightly.
- Top each muffin with a generous layer of crumble.
- Bake 16–19 minutes, until golden and a tester comes out with moist crumbs.
- Cool in pan 5 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool until warm or room temp.
Notes
Swap in blueberries or raspberries for a mixed-berry twist, or add a pinch of almond extract to highlight the cherry flavor. Store muffins airtight at room temperature for 2 days or freeze up to 2 months; rewarm in a 300°F oven for 8–10 minutes for that fresh-baked texture.
