4. In a measuring jug, whisk together the oat milk, brewed coffee, vegetable oil and flax eggs.

5. Gradually pour the liquid milk mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring constantly with a rubber spatula until the batter comes together.

6. Spoon the batter equally into the 12 muffin cases. Sprinkle the crunchy topping over each one, gently pressing the crumbs into the batter with your fingertips.

7. Bake for 17-20 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Remove from the oven and transfer the muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.

8. Meanwhile, make the coffee icing drizzle. In a small bowl, mix the coffee and icing sugar together until runny.
