The Muffin Topping Mistake You Are Probably Making - Tasting Table
Briefly

"While the fluffy middle of a vanilla-scented muffin is ambrosial, it's the heavenly topping that turns a simple baked good into a show-stopping culinary phenomenon."
"The perfect time to top your muffins with sugar is just before you pop them in the oven. The sugar will adhere to the sticky batter and crystallize as it bakes."
"It has to be a raw form of sugar, such as turbinado sugar or demerara sugar. These varieties have a golden color and toffee-like flavor because they have a higher concentration of molasses."
"Consider combining the sugar with a dash of cinnamon, lemon zest, or powdered ginger to lend your topping a touch more character."
