Ingredients

  • For the Crumb Topping

    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
    • 1/2 teaspoon salt
    • 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • For the Muffins

    • 2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 teaspoon baking powder
    • 1 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
    • 12 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
    • 1 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 2 large egg yolks
    • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
    • 2/3 cup creme fraiche
    • Heaping 1/4 cup jam

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place twelve 2 3/4-by-2-inch panettone papers on a rimmed baking sheet; set aside.

  2. Make the topping: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, brown sugar, salt, and cinnamon. Add melted butter and, using a rubber spatula, toss until large crumbs form. Set aside.

  3. Make the muffins: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs, egg yolks, and vanilla. Add flour mixture alternating with creme fraiche and mix until well combined.

  4. Divide batter evenly between muffin cups. Add 1 heaping teaspoon jam to each muffin cup and evenly divide crumb topping among muffin cups. Transfer to oven and bake until golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer muffins to a wire rack to cool.

    I was wondering where I can order the pannetone muffin liners you used for this recipe. I can only seem to find them in quantities of 6 or 24. You mentioned that you could buy 100 for about 15.00. Please let me know. I think they are beautiful and would like to make the recipe using these baking cups. Thanks
