APPLE CINNAMON STREUSEL MUFFIN WITH YOGHURT GLAZE

What happens when you put a puffin with a muffin in the room? Nuffin. ('course they don't like muffins) Ahem. Muffins are, however, one of our favourite baked treats, and whoever says otherwise hasn't eaten one before.

Thanks to NourishPlant, all the other muffins pale in comparison to her marvellous-sounding "Apple Cinnamon Streusel Muffin with Yoghurt Glaze" recipe. You're probably wondering—what on earth is a streusel? It's a German word that's used in baking, connotes a crumbly topping of flour, butter, and sugar (we'd be using ground oat flour, coconut sugar, vegan butter) that's added to the top of pies, muffins, or any other baked treats you'd like to sprinkle on.

With these delish vegan muffins in tow, we're undaunted by the prospects of becoming a muffin-top (that is if we singlehandedly finish the entire tray—an idea that isn't so ludicrous when you smell the golden muffins baking happily in the oven). When they emerge, get ready to spoon the creamy coconut yoghurt on top, along with your streusel crumbs! The recipe may look really long, but we assure you... it's easy to follow, and oh so worth it!
