• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour — cream-cheese filling
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled — muffin batter
• ½ cup packed brown sugar — muffin batter
• ⅓ cup granulated sugar — muffin batter
• 2 eggs, at room temperature — muffin batter
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract or paste — muffin batter
• ½ cup sour cream, at room temperature — muffin batter
