Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup all-purpose flour ((72g))
1/2 cup sugar ((112g))
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup butter (melted (salted or unsalted both work))
1.5 cups all-purpose flour ((212g))
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp kosher salt
Zest of 2 meyer lemons ((or do zest of 1 orange plus zest of 1 lemon))
1/3 cup unsalted butter (melted (about 5.33 tbsp))
1 large egg
2/3 cup buttermilk
2 cups blueberries ((I use frozen))

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Start with the streusel crumb topping. In a small bowl, whisk to combine the flour, sugar, and cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and mix with a fork until crumbs form. Chill in the refrigerator while you continue with the recipe.
  • For the muffin batter, in a large bowl, whisk to combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and citrus zest.
  • In another large bowl, whisk to combine the melted butter, egg, and buttermilk. It's fine if it looks curdled or lumpy.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry, and stir just enough to bring the batter together. It will be thick and lumpy, and that's fine. Take care not to overstir, which can make your muffins tough.
  • Dump in the blueberries, and fold them in gently, just enough to distribute them somewhat evenly. Take care not to stir too much, or your batter will turn purple.
  • Use a large 3-Tbsp cookie scoop and scoop slightly overfilled portions evenly into the 12 lined muffin wells.
  • Remove the crumb topping from the fridge and break up the crumbs with your fingertips, sprinkling the topping onto each of the muffin batter scoops.
  • Bake for 28-30 minutes, until the crumbs are golden brown. To make sure they are done inside, I gently press my fingertip in the top center of the muffin. It should spring back to the touch.
  • They can be enjoyed warm out of the oven, but I personally find the flavor to be at its best after they've cooled for about 2 hours. Enjoy!

BLUEBERRY NUT MUFFINS

Muffins are a great part of a brunch or tea. These are not too sweet, which lends to the favor of the fruit in this muffin. Sprinkle sugar on top of muffins before baking for a sweeter top.

THE BEST BLUEBERRY MUFFINS



The Best Blueberry Muffins image

The problem with most blueberry muffins is there are never enough blueberries. But for the batter to support the weight and moisture of the berries, it needs to have an airier texture than most dump-and-stir muffin recipes. So, we creamed the butter for that extra lift and to prevent the blueberries from making the batter gummy. We also added buttermilk and sour cream for richness and tang and to help tenderize the crumb. Lemon zest adds brightness and sprinkling raw sugar before baking give a nice crunch to the muffin tops.

Time 1h15m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 teaspoons kosher salt
Nonstick cooking spray
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1 large egg
2 large egg yolks
3 tablespoons raw sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk together 2 1/2 cups of the flour and the baking powder in a medium bowl until completely combined. Toss 1 1/2 cups of the blueberries with the remaining 2 tablespoons flour in a medium bowl until completely coated. Whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, vanilla and salt in a large measuring cup until smooth.
  • Arrange a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F. Spray the top of a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray and line with standard cupcake liners. (It's important to spray the top of the pan because the muffin tops will stick to the pan if you don't.)
  • Beat the butter, granulated sugar and lemon zest with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, occasionally scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the egg and yolks and continue beating until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes.
  • With the mixer on low, add the dry ingredients in 3 additions, alternating with the wet ingredients in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Fold in the blueberries until evenly distributed (be careful not to overmix).
  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups with a heaping 1/3 cup per muffin. Top the batter with the remaining 1/2 cup blueberries, gently pressing to adhere (you should have 4 to 5 berries per muffin). Sprinkle with the raw sugar.
  • Bake the muffins, rotating the pan halfway through, until a tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer the pan to a wire rack and let the muffins cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then remove the muffins onto the wire rack to cool completely.
