Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted and cooled
1/2 tsp cinnamon
2 cups all-purpose flour (for the batter)
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
2 1/3 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1 tbsp flour (for tossing blueberries)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a muffin pan with paper liners.
In a small bowl, mix 1 cup flour, 2/3 cup sugar, melted butter, and cinnamon until it forms a crumbly streusel topping.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a second bowl, whisk the eggs, 1 cup sugar, yogurt, oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined; do not overmix.
Toss the blueberries with the remaining 1 tablespoon of flour and gently fold them into the batter.
Divide the batter among the muffin cups and top generously with the prepared streusel.
Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Notes
Ensure the melted butter has cooled slightly before mixing the streusel so it stays crumbly rather than melting into the flour. Tossing the blueberries in a bit of flour helps keep them from sinking to the bottom of the muffins during baking. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
