Method

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a regular-size muffin pan with 12 paper bake cups; set aside. In a small bowl, combine topping ingredients using a pastry blender or fork, then set aside. In a large bowl, combine first 7 ingredients. Combine and add remaining 4 ingredients; stir just until combined. Do not over mix. Divide batter among muffin cups. Top each muffin with about one tablespoon of topping. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until tops are light golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle of muffin comes out clean. Cool on rack.
