• 4 in a bowl, whisk the buttermilk and eggs together.
• 5 add the melted butter and stir until well blended.
• 6 in another bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and cinnamon.
• 7 pour the buttermilk/butter mixture over the flour mixture, stirring just until moistened.
• 8 scoop 1/4 cup of batter into prepared muffin cups (will be almost full).
• 9 sprinkle evenly with the topping, covering the top of each muffin completely.
• 10 bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes, or until a pick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean, with a few moist crumbs attached.
• 11 cool for 3 minutes and turn out on cooling rack.
