Chef's
  • Streusel Crunch: Add a spoonful of cornstarch (or oats) to the streusel for extra crispiness.
  • Moistness Tip: For even moister muffins, use a little less flour or a little more buttermilk.
  • Serving Temperature: After refrigerating, let the muffins sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before eating; they don't need to be fully room temperature, just not chilled.
