Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake Muffins

So I was introduced to this amazing new Greek yogurt from Yoplait, called Plentí, and I am so excited! It’s filled with whole grain oats, plus flax and pumpkin seeds. It’s the perfect snack when my midday hangry pains kick in, or when I decide my breakfast should be Cinnamon Struesel Coffee Cake Muffins.

No guilt here. Nope. Only delicious.

These cinnamon streusel coffee cake muffins are packed with cinnamon goodness, both in the muffins, and in the crumbly, sweet streusel topping. I used a combination of butter and oil to give the muffins a little more cake texture, as opposed to the traditional muffin-y nooks, crannies, and crumby texture. This makes the muffins more reminiscent to my favorite coffee cake, just in happy, bite sized, glazed portions.

Yum.

But you know, even if I’m not noshing on some cinnamon streusel coffee cake muffins, I can still enjoy the hearty deliciousness of Yoplait Plentí.
In the meantime, let’s make some muffins, shall we?
