Homemade Blueberry Muffins with a crumble streusel topping that are ready in just 30 minutes! They're perfect for breakfast meal prep or weekend brunch.
Blueberry Muffins worth fighting over.
I've been making these homemade blueberry muffins for years, and they never fail to disappear within minutes of coming out of the oven. I love that you can use fresh or frozen blueberries and they're so simple to make and taste bakery worthy. The baked muffins also freeze great for the kid's lunchboxes, or an afternoon snack.

How to Make Blueberry Muffins From Scratch:
Make Muffin Batter: Stir flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, mix oil, egg, buttermilk, and vanilla. Stir just until combined, don't over mix! Toss the blueberries with a spoonful of flour (a good trick so they don't sink to the bottom!). Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
Fill Pan and Top With Streusel: Using a pastry blender, fork, or your fingers, mix all of the ingredients for the crumb topping until it's a course sand texture.
Bake: Place muffin tin in the oven and bake at 375°F for 20 minutes, or until the toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, or with just a few crumbs. Remove muffins from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes then remove these easy blueberry muffins to a wire rack to cool completely.
