Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Prepare the crumble by mixing cold, diced salted butter, brown sugar, and all-purpose flour in a medium bowl until resembling coarse crumbs. Chill for about 20 minutes.
- Mix wet ingredients by whisking together melted butter, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil in a large bowl. Add eggs and sour cream, stirring gently until just combined.
- Combine dry ingredients by gradually adding all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to the wet mixture and mix gently. Slowly incorporate whole milk and fold in mini chocolate chips.
- Fill muffin tins by lining them with paper liners or greasing lightly. Fill each muffin cup almost to the top and sprinkle generously with the chilled crumble topping.
- Bake the muffins in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 5 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 350°F (175°C) and bake for an additional 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
- Cool and serve by letting muffins cool for about 15 minutes before removing from the tin and placing on a wire rack. Enjoy with a pat of butter or your favorite beverage.
