Homemade blueberry muffins with a crumble topping are on a whole new level. Every muffin is packed with blueberries in every bite and decadent with the the streusel topping. These muffins will remind you of something you would get from a fancy café.
These Blueberry muffins are sure to brighten anyones morning or even as an afternoon snack. You could even pack them up and gift them to a neighbour. Be sure to enjoy them quickly though because any fresh fruit muffins will have a shorter shelf life due to extra moisture. The crumble topping is completely optional but trust em when I say it will make these muffins even more delicious.

Tips & Tricks:
- Streusel Topping: If you notice when combining all of the ingredients for the streusel that its not clumping together and seems less like pea sized clumps and more like wet sugar add some more melted butter the mixture.
- Fresh vs Frozen Blueberries: You can use either type of blueberries. Frozen berries will add a little additional moisture though so consider coating your berries in a tablespoon or 2 of flour.
- Storage: Keep muffins in an airtight container for 3 days. Anything longer then that and the muffins will become very soft from all of the moisture release from the blueberries.
- Change the flavour: Add a tbsp of lemon zest to make this a lemon blueberry muffin. Or add a 1/2 to 1 tsp of cinnamon to the batter for added warmth.
