ZUCCHINI MUFFINS WITH CINNAMON CRUNCH TOPPING

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Using 1 tablespoon softened butter, generously butter the cups and the top of a standard 12-cup muffin tin. Set aside.
• Cut the tips off the zucchini and grate the zucchini into shreds on a box grater. Pile the zucchini onto a clean dish towel and squeeze tightly over the sink to remove any excess water. Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, sift 1 cup whole-wheat flour with the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt, then whisk to combine. Set aside.
• To a medium bowl, add the melted butter, milk, applesauce, honey, eggs, lemon juice and vanilla, and whisk to combine. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the liquid inside. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold everything together, being careful not to overmix. Just before completely combined, sprinkle the zucchini over the top, breaking up any clumps with your hands, and finish folding the batter until combined. Using a spoon or scoop, divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. (It should come to the top of each cup).
• In a small bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon whole-wheat flour with the turbinado sugar and cinnamon. Using your fingers, work in the remaining 1 tablespoon softened butter until everything is evenly moist. Sprinkle the mixture over the tops of the muffins, then carefully brush away any crumbs that spill onto the top of the muffin tin. Bake the muffins, rotating halfway through, until the tops form firm domes, the sugar topping caramelizes and the muffins are cooked through, 24 to 26 minutes. (The tops should spring back when lightly pressed.) Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the tin for 15 minutes before using a small offset spatula to transfer them to a wire rack to cool for at least another 10 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

CINNAMON CRUMB CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
• You will need two muffin pans that hold 12 muffins each. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Combine the flour and baking powder together in a bowl and add to the butter, sugar, and egg mixture. Mix on low speed until well blended-the batter will be very thick.
• Divide the batter evenly among the 24 cups. This will fill them about half way.
• For the topping, mix together the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.
• Add the hard butter and cut it in to the dry ingredients until it resembles coarse crumbs-you can use your hands for this, rubbing it between your fingertips. Don't make it too fine, you want it to have some body to it. Note: I use my hand held pastry blender tool.
• Put about 1 tablespoon of the streusel topping over each cake using up all of the topping;you will not see much of the batter.
• Bake in a preheated oven on two shelves for about 18 minutes, switching shelves after the first 10 minutes.
• They are done when a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Do not overbake;start checking them at about 16 minutes.
• Cool 5 minutes in the pans then remove to a cooling rack.
