Blueberry Muffins Recipe #96520
This is a recently adopted recipe of mine. My DS loves blueberry muffins so I had to adopt these for him. I reduced the amount of topping as well as amount of butter in the batter. These remind me of bakery style muffins.

- 2/3 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1-1 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
- To make the crumble topping, in a medium bowl, combine the flour, cinnamon, and brown sugar.
- Add the butter pieces and cut into the sugar mixture with a pastry blender until the topping is crumbly; set aside.
- To make the blueberry muffins, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Generously butter or grease six 8-ounce jumbo muffin cups.
- If using fresh blueberries, rinse and thoroughly dry the berries.
- In a small bowl, toss the fresh or frozen berries with the 1 tablespoon flour.
- In a large bowl, stir together the 2 cups flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt; make a well in the center.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and 1 cup of the buttermilk until combined.
- Whisk in the vanilla and melted butter.
- Pour the buttermilk mixture into the well.
- Begin stirring the liquids, gradually drawing the dry ingredients into the well until they are almost, but not quite, combined.
- If mixture is to thick, add the additional 1/4 cup of buttermilk and gently mix.
- Add the blueberries and fold in just to distribute evenly taking care not to overmix.
- Evenly divide the crumble topping among the muffins, sprinkling it on top.
- Bake the muffins for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes, then carefully turn out onto the rack.
- Serve warm, or cool completely.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
