Rustic Blueberry Muffins with Streusel Topping

Homemade Rustic Blueberry Muffins with Streusel Topping use simple and fresh ingredients. Easy to follow recipe gives you a wonderfully moist and flavorful muffin.

Do you love a great blueberry muffin with plenty of streusel topping?

Each berry season I freeze locally harvested berries to use in recipes all year long. This weekend I made a batch of my Rustic Blueberry Muffins with Streusel Topping. 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!

This past week I made 100 plus Decorated Heart Shaped Sugar Cookies, so the kids could have them to hand out at school for Valentine’s Day. I’ve spread the love throughout the community with them as well! Because who doesn’t love a homemade treat?! Perhaps you’re looking for something to make for Valentine’s Day for your co-workers or even for the kids. These are great and fairly simple to make. Get as creative as you want with the decorations!
