Homemade Rustic Blueberry Muffins with Streusel 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. This weekend I made a batch of my 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!
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 love that this one has a cover, so if you are transporting a bunch of muffins or cupcakes, they won’t get squished. Oh, don’t forget to check out my Yellow Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting! That’s such a simple and delicious recipe! (if you don’t need the cover, just order the same muffin pan without the cover). Nordicware bakeware is made in the USA!
Another great recipe for breakfast or brunch is my Blueberry Banana Pancakes!
Would love to hear from you! Please leave a review and let me know how your muffins turned out!

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.
