Ingredients

1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
3 tbsp cold unsalted butter
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1 heaping cup dried cherries
1/2 tsp almond extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter

Steps

Heat the oven to 375 F and line 16 muffin cups with paper liners.
Rub the cold butter into the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon, then stir in the sliced almonds.
Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl, and combine the buttermilk with the almond extract.
Beat the softened butter and sugar until creamy, then beat in the eggs one at a time.
Add the dry mixture and buttermilk mixture in alternating portions, stirring just until combined, then fold in the dried cherries.
Fill the muffin cups, top them with streusel, and bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean.
