Best Blueberry Muffins

Another recipe I made today - blueberry muffins with streusel topping. These are really delicious, and Tom has been known to eat an entire batch (12 muffins) in a day!

Ingredients:



Muffin:

• 1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
• 2 3/4 teaspoons baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon sugar

Streusel:

• 1/4 cup sugar
• 2 1/2 tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 1/2 tablespoons butter

Directions:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line muffin tin with muffin papers
• Combine first 5 ingredients in a large bowl; make a well in center of mixture
• Combine egg, milk, and oil; stir well. Add to dry ingredients, stirring just until moistened (important - do not overmix, or the muffins will be tough)
• Combine blueberries, 1 tablespoon flour, and 1 tablespoon sugar, tossing gently to coat. Fold blueberry mixture into batter
• Spoon batter into lined muffin pans, filling two-thirds full
• Combine 1/4 cup sugar, 2 1/2 tablespoons flour, and cinnamon; cut in butter with a pastry blender or fork until mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle over batter
• Bake for 18 minutes or until golden. Remove from pans immediately
• Yield: 12 muffins
