Blueberry Muffins

An absolute favorite in this house is muffins!! We love them, all kinds. On my journey to make more foods from scratch, this was one of my first efforts. I will say, it is a bit more complicated than the box mix, but well worth it. The recipe is called "To Die For Blueberry Muffins" and they are delicious!!! The recipe can be found at allrecipes.com.

Don't those look yummy?
The recipe makes 12 muffins, but my children had already tore into them before I got the picture, so that's why there are only 7 pictured. I told you they were good!!


Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease muffin cups of line with muffin liners.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (I used King Arthur Flour half all-purpose, half white whole wheat)
3/4 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking powder
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 egg
1/3 cup milk
1 cup fresh blueberries

Crumb topping ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar To make crumb topping: melt butter, then mix in
1/3 cup flour sugar, flour, and cinnamon.
1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 3/4 cup sugar, salt and baking powder. Place vegetable oil into a 1 cup measuring cup; add the egg and enough milk to fill the cup. Mix this with the flour mixture. Fold in blueberries. Fill muffin cups right to the top, and sprinkle with crumb mixture.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
