List of Ingredients

For the topping:
1/4 cup light-brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Pinch of salt
Pinch of ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature

For the batter:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons buttermilk
Nonstick cooking spray, for pans



Recipe

1. Preheat the oven to 375°. To make the topping, in a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, salt, and cinnamon. Add butter, and work in, using your fingers or a pastry cutter, until well combined; set aside

2. To make the batter, in a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla, and beat to combine. Add the dry ingredients, alternating with the sour cream and buttermilk, and beginning and ending with the dry ingredients; scrape down the bowl as necessary.

3. Spray eighteen cups of a mini-muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Divide batter evenly between cups. Sprinkle topping over batter. Bake until a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes. Let stand in pans for 5 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool. Use immediately.
