Streusel-topped apple-spice muffins

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
2. To make the streusel, in a small bowl, combine the streusel ingredients until moistened; set aside.
3. To make the muffins, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, apple pie spice, baking soda, and salt. Whisk together the brown sugar, applesauce, yogurt, oil, melted butter, and egg in a medium bowl. Add the applesauce mixture and apple to the flour mixture; stir just until the flour mixture is moistened.
4. Fill the muffin cups evenly with the batter. Sprinkle evenly with the streusel, pressing lightly so it adheres. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 15 – 20 minutes. Let cool in the pan on a rack 5 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pan and let cool on a rack about 15 minutes longer. Serve warm. Yields 1 muffin per serving.
