Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a muffin pan with liners.
Prepare the streusel topping by mixing brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and cubed butter until crumbly.
In a large bowl, whisk together dry ingredients: flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In another bowl, mix wet ingredients: melted butter, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, eggs, sour cream, and milk until smooth.
Gently fold the wet mixture into the dry ingredients until just combined.
Fill muffin liners two-thirds full with batter and top with streusel.
Bake for 18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving.
