Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for crumble topping)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for crumble topping)
  • 2 tablespoons cold butter, cubed (for crumble topping)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for crumble topping)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the flour, sugar, and cinnamon for the crumble topping. Add the cold butter and mix with your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  4. In another bowl, mix the milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  6. Gently fold the fresh blueberries into the batter.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
  8. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the muffin batter.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use fresh blueberries for best results. Do not overmix the batter to avoid dense muffins. Customize the crumble topping with nutmeg or chopped nuts for extra flavor. Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
