Instructions
To make the crumb topping:
- Combine the flour, brown sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon and salt.
- Add the butter, and mix with a fork, a pastry blender, or your fingers until the mixture forms crumbs. Set aside. (Refrigerate if you have a warm kitchen.)
To make the muffins:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease or line a 12-cup muffin pan.
- Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Make a well in the center of the mixture.
- In a separate bowl, combine the yogurt, butter, eggs, and vanilla (if using). Add to the well in the flour mixture, and mix just until combined.
- Transfer half of the batter to a separate bowl. Add the cocoa powder to one half of the batter, and mix until combined.
- Alternate dropping the two doughs by teaspoonfuls into the prepared muffin cups. (Each will be about 2/3 full when you're done.) Top with crumb topping.
- Bake the muffins 18 to 20 minutes, or until a pick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan 10 minutes before transferring the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
