Method
 

Prepare the Muffin Batter
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a muffin tin.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the sourdough starter, milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In another bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
Make the Streusel Topping
  1. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Mix until crumbly.
Bake the Muffins
  1. Divide the muffin batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  2. Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  4. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
