Ingredients
  

For the muffins

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs at room temperature
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 tbsp whole milk greek yogurt
  • 6 tbsp milk
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 2 cups flour
  • 2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ginger
  • 1 apple peeled and chopped

For the crumb topping

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup cane sugar
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup flour

For the vanilla glaze

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F. Grease 12 standard muffin tins and line them with cupcake liners. Set them aside.
  • In a small bowl, prepare the streusel topping by combining the ingredients with a fork or pastry cutter until it resembles wet sand.
  • In a large mixing bowl, mix the melted butter and sugars until well combined. Add the eggs one at a time, followed by the Greek yogurt, milk, and vanilla extract.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, spices, and salt, mixing until it starts coming together. Gently fold in the apple pieces with a rubber spatula; the batter will be thick.
  • Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins, filling them about 3/4 of the way. You can use a large cookie scoop or a 1/4 cup measure for consistency.
  • Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon of the streusel mixture on top of each muffin, pressing it gently into the batter.
  • Bake at 425°F for 5 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the muffins are golden brown and spring back when touched.
  • While the muffins bake, you can make the icing by mixing all the icing ingredients until smooth and creamy.
  • Once the muffins have cooled completely, drizzle them with the icing, and they're ready to enjoy!
