Blueberry Muffins with crumb topping use simple and fresh ingredients. Easy to follow recipe gives you a wonderfully moist and flavorful blueberry muffin.
Do you love a great blueberry muffin with plenty of streusel topping? We also love homemade banana bread, banana muffins, and raspberry streusel muffins.
Each berry season I freeze locally harvested berries to use in recipes all year long. These blueberry muffins are moist, light, and extremely flavorful! They are perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a treat to carry along on your busy day’s adventures. A decadent rolled oat- streusel topping will have you nibbling on every morsel.
Now, I have to admit, I probably have more baking equipment than most. I love kitchen equipment and utensils. But these muffins don’t require anything fancy. You’ll need a muffin pan and some paper liners. You can even make the batter in a simple bowl and an electric hand mixer. Of course, fresh berries are best. But, if you have plentiful berries in the freezer like me, you’re welcome to use them!
I talked about the difference in baking pans with my Chewy Fudge Brownies. And the same goes for muffins. I’m in LOVE with these muffin pans from Nordicware and I these are the cooling racks I use.

Good morning! I am in the middle of making this recipe when I realize the written instructions tell us where to add milk, but there’s no milk listed in the ingredients! There is also baking powder listed in the recipe but doesn’t tell us where to add it. Having done enough baking, I’m assuming the baking powder gets added with the salt and flour but the milk has me at a loss! Help!

Thanks for reaching out!
There’s no milk in the recipe. Not sure why it’s listed in the directions, but I’ll go and change that.
Baking powder gets added with the flour.

I would eat anything with a streusal topping, but these sound so like something I would eat for breakfast! Will be making these next week.
