Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (240 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup (150 g) granulated sugar
  • ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
  • ¾ cup (180 ml) buttermilk, room temperature
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups (225 g) fresh or frozen blueberries (if frozen, toss with 1 tablespoon flour)
  • For the sugar crunch streusel topping:
  • ½ cup (60 g) all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup (50 g) granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 4 tablespoons (57 g) unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a rack in the middle. Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease well.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly combined.
  3. In another bowl, whisk eggs until light and frothy. Add melted butter (cooled), buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth.
  4. Pour wet mixture into dry ingredients. Gently fold with a spatula just until combined; a few lumps are okay.
  5. Carefully fold in blueberries, coating them lightly with batter to prevent sinking.
  6. In a small bowl, mix flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or fingers to blend until coarse crumbs form.
  7. Spoon batter into muffin cups, filling about ⅔ full. Generously sprinkle streusel on top of each muffin.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until tops are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out with a few moist crumbs. Rotate pan halfway if needed.
  9. Remove from oven and let muffins sit in the pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Do not overmix the batter to keep muffins tender. Use cold butter for streusel to ensure crisp clusters. Transfer muffins to a wire rack promptly after baking to avoid soggy bottoms. For a glossier topping, brush streusel with milk or beaten egg white before baking.
