Ingredients

Scale

1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
For the Crumb Topping:
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, cubed
1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line your muffin tin with paper liners or grease it well to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Prepare the Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 2 teaspoons baking powder until well combined.

Step 3: Mix in the Wet Ingredients

Add 1/3 cup vegetable oil, 1 egg, and 1/3 cup milk to the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.

Step 4: Fold in the Blueberries

Gently fold in 1 cup of blueberries (fresh or frozen) into the batter. Take care not to burst the berries during this process.

Step 5: Fill the Muffin Cups

Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each one right to the top for extra-tall muffins.

Step 6: Prepare the Crumb Topping

In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/3 cup all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup cubed butter, and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. Mix with a fork until crumbly.

Step 7: Add the Crumb Topping

Evenly sprinkle the crumb topping over the muffin batter in each cup.

Step 8: Bake the Muffins

Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. The muffins are done when the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9: Cool Before Serving

Allow the muffins to cool slightly in the pan before removing them. Enjoy your delicious blueberry muffins!

Notes

Note 1: Choosing Blueberries

Fresh blueberries will yield better results, but if using frozen, do not thaw them first to avoid excess moisture in the batter.

Note 2: Storage

Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Note 3: Freezing

These muffins can be frozen. Wrap each muffin in plastic wrap and store them in a freezer-safe bag. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.
