Here's a recipe for coffee cake muffins that's pretty easy to make. It makes 12 regular size muffins, and they keep really well in the freezer.
Topping
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Muffin batter
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 cup yogurt (any flavour will work)
1 tsp vanilla
1. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together, set aside.
2. Mix flour, baking powder and baking soda together, set aside.
3. Whisk white sugar, oil and eggs until smooth, add vanilla and yogurt.
4. Add flour mixture to egg mixture (just stir until everything is combined, if you overdo it the muffins will be kinda tough).
5. Spray muffin tin with cooking spray.
6. Spoon half of dough into tin, top with half of sugar mixture, repeat. It can be tough to get everything split up evenly. If you don't want to bother with that part, just put all the batter in the tin, and then put the brown sugar on top, rather than putting some in the middle too.
Bake at 400 F for 21 minutes.
