Ingredients
For The Muffins
- 2¾ cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup dark brown sugar or light brown sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter melted and cooled
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup whole milk
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh blueberries
For The Streusel Topping
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour
- ½ cup dark brown sugar or light brown sugar
- ½ tsp Ground cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- 6 tbsp butter cubed and cold
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Whisk to combine.
- Cut in cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until coarse crumbs appear. I use a fork or my hands.
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease and line, optional, a 12-cup muffin pan with liners.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, brown sugar, butter, oil.
- Add eggs, sour cream, milk, and vanilla. Whisk until smooth.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix. A few streaks of flour are perfectly fine.
- Gently fold blueberries into batter. Avoid crushing them.
- Rest batter for 20 minutes.
- Fill each muffin cup nearly to the top.
- Generously top each muffin with streusel.
- Bake at 425°F for 7 minutes. Without opening the oven, reduce temperature to 350°F.
- Bake another 15. Insert a toothpick for doneness. You want a few moist crumbs to come out on the toothpick. If not, bake in 2-minute increments—no more than 18 minutes.
- Cool in pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack.
