These Blueberry Streusel Muffins are a moist breakfast recipe with the perfect streusel topping.
BLUEBERRY STREUSEL MUFFINS
I think over half of you guys said in the comments in the last giveaway that you are pregnant too! Anyone else in that weird in-between stage of pregnancy where people are wondering has she eaten too many KrispyKremes…or is she pregnant? Pregnancy mixed with vacation eating…ah…my clothes are all getting a little tighter for sure.
We were just in Vegas for the Garth Brooks Teammates for Kids charity we are involved with and I had a silver dress that I bought a couple of months ago that had Vegas written all over it. It definitely was snugger than when I first bought it but I didn’t really feel like a stuffed sausage until after we had eaten a huge dinner and headed to Garth’s concert.
I had been fighting a chronic cough for a while…and as I was sitting in my seat watching Garth perform, I let out a big cough and felt a riiiiippppp.
Sure enough the zipper on my dress had ripped from the top of my dress all the way down to the top of my booty.
Mortified.
I knew there was no immediate escape possible so I kept my back stuck to my seat. I tried to enjoy the concert as much as I could but I knew after the concert the wives and husbands involved in the charity were supposed to go on stage and take a picture with Garth.
My husband tried to sneak the zipper slyly up but it was completely off track and required some major tweaking if it could even be fixed at all.
Finally, after the concert while we were waiting for Garth, I borrowed a shawl from a girl behind me and snuck out of the theater into a small curtained off section right outside where my husband tried to fix my dress.
My husband at one point ripped the whole zipper out but eventually Macgyvered the zipper back into my dress. I’m sure by my giggling and all the shenanigans going on people thought we were doing the naughty.
The moral of the story is I need to stop pretending I’m the same size I used to be.
I saw these Blueberry Streusel Muffins over at Barbara Bakes and had to make them with all of the fresh blueberries available right now. They are the perfect texture and I added a generous amount of streusel topping because that’s how I roll.
I like what Barbara said that homemade Blueberry Streusel Muffins really do not take that long as long as you have all of the ingredients out and ready to go. I made these for my family for Sunday breakfast with some help from my boys and my niece and they all went crazy for them.
OTHER MUFFIN RECIPES
As you can see we love muffin recipes and have quite of few of them on the blog. Here are some of our favorites:
Preheat oven to 350º. Line muffin pan with paper muffin liners.
To prepare streusel topping mix with sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon with a fork. Sometimes I use my hands to get it fully incorporated so that it has the texture of wet sand. This makes a generous amount of streusel topping which probably could be halved but I like a lot on my muffins.
In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, vanilla and milk. Add flour mixture and stir until just combined.
Gently fold in blueberries.
Divide batter evenly into 12 muffin cups. Sprinkle muffins with streusel topping.
Bake at 350º for 20 to 25 min, until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean. Makes 12 jumbo muffins.
100 of my favorite recipes! This is the family-friendly cookbook for anyone looking to plan quick-and-easy meals and wants a way to bring people together, feasting on food which can only be described as scrumptious.
I am literally addicted to your banana muffins with brown sugar topping I make them just for myself lol but my hubby loves blueberry muffins so I of coarse had to try yours out first .. I say it was a success! I’d recommend adding a comment about how they will fill up the muffin pan to the top its not 2/3rds full like regular muffins I almost didn’t fill them up because I was scared they’d over flow but then I saw how u said to divide it up between the 12 cups so I figured they were supposed to be full and the berries would condense down (this is first time making homemade blueberry muffins) glad I reread ur directions

I have made these over and over again since 2016.  But I’d like to clarify that they do not make 12 jumbo muffins…. I can usually get something between 4-6 jumbo muffins, but 12 standard sized muffins.Â
Either I am a total moron, or this recipe needs a bit more clarification.
I’m a noob in the kitchen so I follow the instructions to the letter. I don’t assume anything, I don’t improvise. So I put the milk and eggs together. ‘Cuz it says so – put the eggs, milk and vanila, no mentionof stirring inbetween. It was a disaster. I don’t know the term in English but the components of the batch seperated themselves – like when you put lemon in milk. I had to ask my spouse (he is kinda the kitchen expert at home) and it took him like 20min stabelize the batch. So I weren’t surprised when the muffins came out extremely moist, even dump. And after all night left without a lid they are still tacky.
My spouse said that I should never put eggs + watery things right to the oily things. I think I’ll give this recipe a go one more time with his recommends 🙂
Were your eggs and milk cold? I’ve had better luck with room temperature ingredients.
You’re not a moron! Baking is science and so we should think of ourselves as mad scientists learning as we go 🙂
So there was a breakfast potluck at work and I had no idea what to bring. I have a recipe for amazing pumpkin muffins, but it’s June and I just didn’t think pumpkin seemed quite right. But muffins did seem like a good idea plus I had all of the basic ingredients needed on hand – I just needed a recipe, not too complicated (I hate to bake) but unique and delicious. A search on the internet yielded a plethora of muffin recipes with blueberry being the most popular. Ok, so I’ll make blueberry muffins, now whose recipe do I use? (Sometimes, when searching for a recipe I click on google images and if I see a photo of something that looks really good, that’s the recipe I’ll use). So I made your streusel topped blueberry muffins for the potluck, and let me tell you they were a huge hit. The streusel topping takes them to the next level and makes them look so pretty. Thanks for another amazing recipe.
I followed the recipe exactly how it said to and my batter came out so tough it was hard to mix and add the blueberries. I’m not sure what I did wrong but my muffins have been in for 30 minutes and they still are really gooey in the middle. I put them back in so we shall see. Any thoughts of what I may have done wrong?
Can I make these in a mini muffin tin as well? Do you think that would work alright? I’m hosting a crafting/brunch party in a couple of weeks, and want to make a mini muffin bar set-up. 🙂
You can definitely make these mini muffin size but I’m not sure what the baking time would be. You would have to test it and just see when they start to barely turn golden.
These were delicious!! My 3 year old and I went blueberry picking this morning and I needed a recipe to use up some of the berries we picked. These were perfect! I didn’t have whole milk, so I used some heavy cream and some skim milk. I used a little more milk than it called for to thin the batter just a bit so I could mix in the berries. They turned out moist and delicious! Thanks for the great recipe!!
I made these recently. We LOVE THEM. Thank you. I am going to throw out all other blueberry muffin recipes.
I didn’t even put the streusel and they were great..
Hi!! Oh my god, so I have a list of recipes to try from your blog alone. I recently started this baking blog in an effort to learn how to cook for my husband-to-be. For my birthday, he bought me a KitchenAid mixer and for my first ever baking experience, I made your muffins!!!
They didn’t come out as lovely as yours did in the picture, but OMG!!!! These got rave reviews from everyone who tried them!! Thank you! Great easy recipe for cooking-challenged like myself. 🙂

Thanks for your feedback!
They turned out perfect! I made them just as written with frozen wild blueberries.
So happy to hear!

Sorry! Not sure what went wrong but it is okay to put eggs and oil together.
Were your eggs and milk cold? I’ve had better luck with room temperature ingredients.

HiÂ
Can I make it without butter and milk?
That would definitely mess with the nature of the recipe.

Shoot. I have no idea why?! I wish I could cook with you and figure it out…
does this receipe make 12 jumbo muffins like Panera Bread or the cupcake size
It makes cupcake size muffins.
Added lemon zest to the batter and these were soooo freaking good!
Glad you liked them!
These are seriously amazing!! Just made them, wrote about it on my blog and linked to you. 🙂

Hello! I tried this recipe and loved it. I added a little cream cheese filling to the tops and it was great. I reposted this recipe on my blog (with credit to you of course), I hope that’s okay! Here’s the link: http://briannalanephotography.com/2013/07/17/found-great-blueberry-streusel-muffins/
