Blueberry Streusel Muffins Recipe
Print recipe Ingredients
Muffins
- 2 packages muffin mix
- 1 cup half and half
- 1/3 heaping cup fresh blueberries
Topping
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1/4 cup chilled unsalted butter
Directions
| Step 1 | |
|
Preheat your oven according to your mix's package directions. These blueberry cheesecake muffins happen to be my favorite. They just taste creamier and a little more homemade than the regular blueberry ones. But let's try to make them taste even more homemade. Shall we?  | |
| Step 2 | |
|
The fist thing we do to pretend these guys are homemade is to add a few fresh blueberries into the mix.  | |
| Step 3 | |
|
A heaping 1/3 cup ought to do it.  | |
| Step 4 | |
|
Toss the berries around in the dry mix.  | |
| Step 5 | |
|
Now pour in the half and half.  | |
| Step 6 | |
|
Replacing the milk with half and half will add another homemade feel to the muffins.  | |
| Step 7 | |
|
MIx everything together until you have a creamy batter.  | |
| Step 8 | |
|
Now on to the muffin pan. I've had bad luck in the past using paper liners. Half of the muffin sticks to the liner when you unwrap them. To safeguard against this, I spray all the cups with Baker's Joy.  | |
| Step 9 | |
|
If I ever meet the muffin that can still stick after this, I'm running the other way.  | |
| Step 10 | |
|
Now it's just a matter of scooping up heaps of batter,  | |
| Step 11 | |
|
and trying not to drip all over the pan.  | |
| Step 12 | |
|
Not bad if I do say so myself.  | |
| Step 13 | |
|
Now for the streusel topping! This is super complicated by the way.  | |
| Step 14 | |
|
Dump everything into a bowl.  | |
| Step 15 | |
|
And cut the butter in with a fork or pastry cutter until...  | |
| Step 16 | |
|
you have pretty little yellow crumbs that look like this.  | |
| Step 17 | |
|
Each muffin gets a generous sprinkling of the buttery crumble.  | |
| Step 18 | |
|
Bake according to your package's instructions. Here are mine pre-oven.  | |
| Step 19 | |
|
And here they are 17 minutes later.  | |
| Step 20 | |
|
Voila! Delicious streusel topped muffins that are as easy to make...  | |
| Step 21 | |
|
as they are to eat!  | |
| Step 22 | |
|
Enjoy!  | |
