These muffins were, to be perfectly honest, born of a craving. I just woke up one morning, totally in the mood for something homemade. The issue was…I was feeling lazy and totally didn’t want to make anything complicated.
Here’s an important lesson for you guys. When you want something homemade and you’re feeling lazy, you should be turning to muffins. As a general rule, muffins are super easy to make. And as an extra bonus, muffins are generally made from pretty basic ingredients. Because let’s be honest here. If you’re too lazy to bake anything fancy, chances are, you don’t feel like schlepping to the store either.
Enter these Peanut Butter Crumb Muffins. They are some serious peanut buttery perfection, and they’re so easy to make. No mixer. No fancy ingredients. (Except maybe peanut butter chips, but you can totally use chocolate chips instead.)
So. Keep these in your freezer, in individual bags. Pull one out every night and treat yo’self for breakfast. You can also bake these in mini muffin size (do I hear shalach manos?) – they’ll need about half the time of full sized muffins. Anyway, enjoy. I know we sure did.

These sound delicious! Would I be able to use light brown sugar instead of dark?
Esty says
Looks great
I have your book and notice all ur recipes require milk or soy milk
Can I substitute with water
overtimecook says
No, water will make your baked goods lack flavor and richness. You can use a different kind of non-dairy milk instead, such as almond milk or rice milk.

I have used your cappuccino muffin recipe a few times, and today will try the peanut butter muffin recipe to send to Israeli soldiers for Shabbat in the context of “chamal metukim”. The muffins are easy to package and delicious. They are delivered to the front lines. The soldiers are always grateful. Many thanks for sharing your recipes!
