Baklava Muffins

These muffins are amazing!  If you like crumb cake, coffee cake and anything involving streusel, these are the muffins for you.  They don't even need honey drizzled on top, but if you'd like the full baklava experience, go for it.  The filling makes it.  The cinnamon sugar mixed with butter and walnuts forms a slight crunch when baked, while the buttery, nutty walnuts balance out the granular texture of the sugar.  The muffins have a subtle sweetness, which allows the filling to really shine.  You will fall in love with the chewy, crunchy, cakey texture of these muffins.  I know I have!  Seriously, make these now!     

FYI: I substituted room temperature orange juice for the buttermilk and oil for the 3T melted butter in the muffin batter.  My muffins baked for 11 minutes and made a dozen.
