White Chocolate Chip Lemon Muffins With Macadamia Nut Struesel Recipe



INGREDIENTS

For the Muffins

1 cup butter, melted, slightly cooled
6 oz plain Greek yogurt, such as Chobani
4 eggs lightly beaten
Juice and zest from two lemons
2 ½ cups flour
1 ¾ cup sugar
½ teaspoon baking soda
½ salt
1 cup white chocolate chips

For the streusel 

1 tablespoon butter melted
¼ cup brown sugar
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ cup chopped macadamia nuts

For the glaze

¾ cup powdered sugar
4 Tablespoons lemon juice

DIRECTIONS

  1. Preheat oven to 350. Line two muffin tins with liners, set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and Greek yogurt. Add in beaten eggs, lemon zest and lemon juice. Carefully stir in flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. Batter will be thick. Stir in chocolate chips. Using a cookie scoop, fill muffin tins with a generous scoop of batter.
  3. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, cinnamon, chopped nuts and melted butter. Sprinkle streusel over muffins. You may want to double the streusel! Bake for 18-20 minutes. Let cool in pan for 2-3 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool.
  4. Once the muffins have cooled, prepare glaze. Combine powdered sugar and lemon juice. Adjust according to your taste and desired consistency. Drizzle glaze over cooled muffins.
