Ingredients

For the muffins:

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 Teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 Teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cups buttermilk
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

For the topping:

  • 1/4 Cup butter
  • 1/3 Cup brown sugar
  • 2/3 Cups flour
  • 1 Teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease or line 12 medium sized muffin tins and set aside.
  • First, make the strudel topping. Combine butter, sugar, flour and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Mix with your hands until you have a crumbly mixture. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  • In a medium sized bowl, toss together the blueberries with 1 tablespoon of the flour. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the vanilla and buttermilk.
  • In the bowl of your electric mixer, mix the butter and sugar until light, about 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time and mixing well after each addition.
  • Sift in half of the flour and stir to combine. Stir in the milk and then the rest of the flour. Add the blueberries and stir until just incorporated.
  • Pour evenly into prepared muffin tins. Evenly spoon the crumb mixture over the muffins. Bake for about 15 – 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out with a few crumbs.
  • Cook on a wire rack in the baking tin for about 10 minutes.
  • Best served the day they are made but will keep for up to two days in an airtight container.

Notes

  1. Baking time may vary depending on your oven.  Between 15 - 20 minutes.  A toothpick inserted into the center with a few crumbs on it will show they are done.
  2. These were baked in a medium sized muffin tin.  If you are using large, you will get 9 muffins and will need to increase the baking time by a couple of minutes.
  3. Yes, you can use frozen blueberries.  I recommend adding them to the batter while they are still frozen.
  4. If you don't have buttermilk, whisk 1 tsp of white vinegar into the milk and let it sit for 10 minutes.
