What are Blueberry Streusel Muffins?
Blueberry Streusel Muffins are a delightful breakfast treat blending moist, tender muffin texture with a crunchy, cinnamon-spiced oat topping. The muffin batter is simple—butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, flour, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder—while juicy blueberries infuse each bite with fruity flavor. The streusel topping provides extra sweetness and texture, making these muffins a delicious and satisfying start to your day.
Ingredients
- Blueberries: Fresh and flavorful, they ensure every bite bursts with berry goodness. Coating them in flour prevents sinking.
- Butter: Unsalted butter adds richness to both the muffin batter and the crumb topping, enhancing texture and flavor.
- Sugar: A mix of brown and white sugars sweetens the muffin and caramelizes for a crunchy streusel topping.
- Oats: Quick oats elevate the crumb topping from buttery to crunchy, adding texture.
- Cinnamon: Provides a warm spice that complements the sweet blueberries and adds depth to the topping.
- Baking Powder: Essential for leavening, helping the muffins rise and achieve a fluffy texture.
- Whole Milk: Makes the muffins tender and moist, binding the ingredients together for a rich texture.
Could these muffins be made ahead of time?
If you prefer, you can prepare the batter ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to bake. Just follow the recipe instructions to mix the batter, then cover it tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When you’re ready to bake, take the batter out of the fridge and proceed with the recipe as usual.
How to Store
- Serve: Enjoy Blueberry Streusel Muffins warm from the oven on the day they’re baked. They can also be stored at room temperature for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
- Reheat: Store muffins in the fridge for up to 1 week in an airtight container. Bring to room temperature or gently warm to soften.
- Freeze: For longer storage, freeze muffins for up to 3 months. Wrap each muffin tightly in plastic wrap, then place in a freezer-safe zip-top bag. To enjoy, unwrap and microwave for 30 seconds or until warm.
