Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 1 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 units Large eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 1.5 cups Fresh blueberries
• 0.25 cups Brown sugar (for streusel topping)
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for streusel topping)
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon (for streusel topping)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted for streusel topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups lightly.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, baking powder, 1.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.

Step 4

Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients in three batches, alternating with the milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 7

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.

Step 8

In a small bowl, prepare the streusel topping by mixing together the brown sugar, 3 tablespoons of flour, 0.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, and melted butter until crumbly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the streusel topping evenly over the muffin batter.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 18–22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 11

Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Serve warm or at room temperature and enjoy!
