Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cherry Cobbler Muffins
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a muffin tin by greasing or lining it.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well blended.
  3. In a medium bowl, melt the butter and whisk in the milk, egg, and vanilla extract.
  4. Gently stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, being careful not to overmix. Fold in the cherries.
  5. In a small bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon for the streusel topping. Cut in the butter until crumbly.
  6. Spoon the muffin batter into the muffin cups and top each with streusel.
  7. Bake for 18-22 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  8. Let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
