“Jhuls, where do you put all the food you put into your tummy?“

That’s the question I get to hear whenever I am eating with my friends. That doesn’t bother me, though. As the saying goes “be yourself“, so that was me – being myself. However, weeks after following the Whole30 rules, my tummy can’t handle much. I can’t finish meals that I thought I can. I am not complaining. I am happy that I eat lesser now. And that is the reason why I am learning how to cook and bake small batches, hoping that I won’t regret it later on. Hmm, if I do, I could do another batch. 😀

Mango Streusel Muffins

These muffins originally used peaches, but I prefer mangoes over peaches whenever a recipe calls for peaches. I used the recipe of Sally, but as I said – I used mangoes. I ‘marinated’ the mangoes with lemon, cinnamon and sugar to make sure that the mangoes are sweet enough when they are mixed with the batter. The result was amazing – the crumb topping was super crisp, the muffin was really soft. You could taste the sweet mangoes inside and that cinnamon-y flavor – oh wow! It was like muffins with a mango filling. I could make these over and over again.

I was trying to show the chopped mangoes, but I found most on the sides. The one cut has done better. 😀

I am taking these lovely muffins at Fiesta Friday #176 where me and the talented Monika are co-hosting! Yay! Thank you, Angie, for bringing us all together.

Small Batch Mango Streusel Muffins

Ingredients:

For the crumb topping: 

  • 34g packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 42g all purpose flour

For the muffins:

  • 110g all purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • pinch of nutmeg
  • 58g unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 50g light brown sugar
  • 25g white sugar
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 60g yogurt
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 23ml milk
  • 1 cup mangoes, cubed* (please see optional instruction below)

For the glaze:

  • 1 cup (120g) confectioners’ sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons (45ml) heavy cream (or milk for a less creamy texture)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

For the crumb topping: 

  1. In a bowl, mix all crumb topping ingredients. Set aside.

Preheat the oven to 375F. Spray muffin pan with non-stick spray. Set aside.

For the muffins: 

*Optional: Since I want to make sure that the mangoes are sweet enough when they get inside the muffins, I ‘marinate’ them with 1 1/2 tbsp sugar, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1/2 tbsp lemon juice and pinch of cinnamon. So this came like a mango pie filling inside the muffins. 

  1. In a bowl, mix flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Set aside.
  2. In another bowl, add brown sugar and softened butter. Beat until fluffy (about 3 minutes). Add egg, yogurt, milk and vanilla. Beat for 1 minute or until well combined. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until incorporated. Add mangoes.
  3. Divide the batter into your muffin pan until 2/3 full. (You may get 6-8 muffins. I got 7.)
  4. Top each with the crumb topping, pressing them lightly to the batter.
  5. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until toothpick in the middle comes out clean.
  6. Remove the muffins from the oven and leave in the muffin pan for 5 minutes and transfer to a cooling rack or serving plate.

For the glaze: 

  1. In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for the glaze and mix until smooth. Pour over warm muffins.
