Ingredients

  • ¾ cups milk, any kind (I used 2%)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup vegetable or canola oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste (or vanilla extract)
  • 2 cups pancake mix, any kind
  • cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Cinnamon Streusel Topping:

  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (cut into small cubes)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners, if desired, or spray the pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the pancake mix, sugar, and cinnamon and whisk until combined. Fill each muffin cup about ¾ full. Set aside.
  • To make the cinnamon streusel topping: in a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Cut the butter into the mixture into it resembles coarse sand. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the tops of each muffin.
  • Bake for 18-23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
