COFFEE CAKE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Prepare streusel topping: In a medium bowl, stir together brown sugar, flour, and salt. With a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter until mixture resembles large coarse crumbs; refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare muffins: Butter and flour a jumbo 12-cup muffin tin (or two 6-cup muffin tins). In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
• Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat together butter, sour cream, granulated sugar, and vanilla until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, until well combined. With mixer on low, beat flour mixture into butter mixture.
• Divide half the batter among prepared muffin cups. Top with half the streusel mixture, then remaining batter, and top with streusel. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool in pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with confectioners' sugar, if desired.

COFFEE CAKE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper liners or coat with nonstick spray; set aside. To make the crumb topping, combine sugars, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in melted butter. Add flour and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist. Spread out mixture on parchment paper to dry until ready to use. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk together milk, canola oil and eggs. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and stir using a rubber spatula just until moist. Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin tray. Sprinkle with reserved crumb topping, using your fingertips to gently press the crumbs into the batter. Place into oven and bake for 15-17 minutes, or until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean. To make the glaze, combine confectioners' sugar, vanilla and milk. Whisk until smooth. If the glaze is too thin, add more confectioners' sugar as needed. When the muffins are done, cool for 10 minutes and drizzle the glaze on each muffin. Allow glaze to set before serving.

EASY CLASSIC FRENCH BRIOCHE BREAD

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Using a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, mix all the ingredients together on low speed for 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth and elastic. This process can take up to 15 minutes. Alternately, you can use a bread machine for the kneading portion of this recipe. Allow the machine to complete the dough cycle fully before moving onto the next step.
• Gather the dough into a ball and place it in a large, greased bowl or dough container, turning once to coat the dough. Cover the bowl and then allow the dough to rise for 45 minutes at room temperature.; this will kick-start the fermenting process to give the brioche its signature flavor. Refrigerate the dough for at least 8 hours or overnight. Do not allow the dough to rise for more than 12 hours.
• Place the risen dough in a greased brioche pan, loosely cover it with lightly greased plastic wrap, and then allow it to rise for 90 minutes to 2 hours until it has doubled in size. Brush the dough with the reserved egg white.
• Preheat the oven to 400F. Bake the brioche for 10 minutes. Without opening the oven, reduce the heat to 350 F, and continue baking the bread for an additional 30 minutes. The bread is done when a digital thermometer reads 190 F. If the bread begins to brown too fast-before it tests done-cover it with foil to avoid burning the brioche. Alternately, bake the bread in 12 muffin tins for 20 to 25 minutes, until they test done.
• Allow the large brioche to cool in the pan for 10 minutes or the individual rolls for 5 minutes, and then transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool. For the best flavor and texture, serve it slightly warm or at room temperature on the first day. Use any day-old brioche in our luscious brioche bread pudding recipe .
