Blueberry Meyer Lemon Muffins with Streusel Crumb Topping Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by dkanon

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces all purpose flour (about 1 1/2 cups)
3/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
Zest of 2 Meyer lemons
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 extra large egg
1/3 cup milk
2 cups blueberries
1/2 cup sugar
2 1/2 ounces flour (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup butter
1 teaspoon cinnamon (cinnamon goes beautifully with blueberries)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners. In the meantime, make the streusel crumb topping. Dice up the butter into cubes, and work all of the ingredients together with your fingertips, until it forms a bunch of crumbs and clumps. Chill in the fridge until ready for use. Back to the muffins: Whisk to combine the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and meyer lemon zest. Take a tbsp of the mixture and toss it with the blueberries. This ensures that the blueberries stay suspended throughout the muffin, instead of falling to the bottom. Place the vegetable oil, egg, and milk in a bowl, and whisk to combine. Add that to the flour mixture, and remember, leave lots of lumps. If there aren't any lumps whenever you are using the muffin method of baking, you have overmixed and invited more gluten (and toughness) to the party than was welcome. Don't worry, a few lumps will bake out. Dump in the blueberries, and fold them in gently. Use a disher to portion them out into the muffin cups, and sprinkle the crumb topping all over the tops. Bake for 20-22 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with no wet batter. Let them cool, and enjoy!

I gave an old recipe a new twist. I added yogurt and lemon zest to the batter. I topped them off with a lemony crumb topping. Adding the yogurt added a nice smooth silky texture to these muffins. The muffins are chock-full of blueberries. The addition of lemon really adds a lot to this muffin. They are truly delicious. Enjoy!
