Ingredients

For the Crumb Topping:
  • 1/3 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons Butter, Cold
For the Muffins:
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 3/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Rainbow Sprinkles
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2/3 cup Buttermilk
  • 2/3 cup Vegetable Oil
  • 2 large Eggs
For the Glaze:

Directions

For the Muffins:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Line 12 muffin tins with liners and set aside.
  2. Prepare crumb topping: In a medium bowl, combine flour and sugar. Cut in butter until mixture forms crumbs. Set aside.
  3. In a medium bowl, mix flour, baking soda, salt, and sprinkles. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, vanilla, buttermilk, oil, and eggs. Add dry mixture to the wet mixture and fold with a wooden spoon until just barely blended.
  4. Fill muffin tins 3/4 full. Divide crumb topping evenly among muffins, sprinkling generously on the top. Bake for about 15 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the muffins comes out clean. Let muffins cool in pan for about 20-30 minutes. Remove to wire rack.

For the Glaze:

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and water. Drizzle over muffins.
