These super yummy muffins get a wholesome boost with the addition of greek yogurt. They make a quick breakfast on the run or a great after-dinner dessert that isn’t too sweet and isn’t too terribly decadent.

To make muffins, whisk together flour, baking powder and soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, mix together butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla and yogurt. Stir dry ingredients into wet ingredients, stirring only until combined.
Pour batter into muffin tins. (It’s a thick batter.) Top each muffin with the streusel crumb topping. Press down a bit to make sure they stick.
