Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Streusel:
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • For the Muffins:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
  2. Make the streusel: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the cold butter pieces and use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  3. Make the muffin batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  6. Gently fold in the blueberries.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over the batter in each muffin cup.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  10. Let the muffins cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For frozen blueberries, do not thaw before adding to the batter.
  • You can add a pinch of nutmeg to the streusel for extra warmth.
  • Ensure your butter is cold for the best streusel texture.
