ANY-FRUIT-WILL-DO MUFFINS WITH STREUSEL TOPPING

Steps:

• For the streusel topping:.
• Mix sugar, cinnamon and pinch of salt in a small bowl or work bowl of a food processor, add butter. If mixing by hand, use fingertips, a pastry blender, or 2 forks to blend the fat into dry ingredients until mixture looks like coarse irregular crumbs, with no visible lumps of butter. If mixing in a food processor, pulse about 10 times, then process 5 to 10 seconds, until there are no visible lumps of butter; stir in nuts. Set aside.
• For the muffins:.
• Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly grease the top surface of a 12-cup muffin pan; use liners, if necessary.
• Whisk 2 1/2 cups flour with next 4 ingredients in a medium bowl, set aside.
• Whisk together next 4 ingredients in a large bowl; whisk in buttermilk and vanilla. Gently whisk dry ingredients into wet ingredients to partially blend. Continue mixing batter with a rubber spatula, making sure that ingredients at the bottom are incorporated into batter fold in fruit. (Frozen fruit will help "firm" up batter. If batter seems too wet add a few more tablespoons of flour, up to 1/4 cup, to stiffen batter.).
• Using an ice-cream scoop, place a portion of batter into each muffin cup, filling to the brim. Sprinkle a portion of streusel topping over batter in each muffin cup.
