Description
Warm and comforting blueberry muffins topped with a sweet streusel, perfect for a winter treat.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- For the Streusel:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Prepare the streusel: In a small bowl, combine the flour and brown sugar. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Sprinkle the streusel topping generously over each muffin.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- 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.
- Ensure your butter for the streusel is cold for the best texture.
