French Toast Cupcakes

Ingredients

FOR THE STREUSEL
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoon cold unsalted butter, cut into chunks
FOR THE CUPCAKES
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 cup sour cream
4 eggs
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
To make the streusel: In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt. Mix the cold butter into the mixture by hand, squeezing the pieces in to mix it.
Cover and freeze while you prepare the cupcakes.
If you're not using the streusel right away, refrigerate it until ready to use.
To make the cupcakes: Pre heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners; set aside.
In a large bowl, or the bowl of a standing mixer, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add the butter, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla and mix well, until the mixture is smooth, about 30 seconds. Get rid of any remaining flour by stirring the mixture by hand, with a spatula.
Place two tablespoons of batter in each prepared baking cup. Divide the streusel evenly among the cupcakes, and sprinkle each it on one. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
