How to make the best bakery style blueberry muffin at home

• Fresh Blueberries: Make sure to use fresh blueberries as they will absolutely burst with flavour as they bake.
• Maple Syrup: Gives a lovely sweetness that isn’t too overpowering.
• Butter & Greek Yogurt: To give the muffins the moisture they need.
• Flour, Baking Powder & Salt: The base of any good muffin.
• Eggs & Vanilla Extract: Eggs bind the batter together and vanilla extract helps with the classic bakery flavour.
• Streusel Topping: Made with brown sugar, butter and flour for the most epic crumb topping.

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp all purpose flour
• 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
• 2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup maple syrup plus more for drizzling
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 2 eggs

Streusel Topping

• 2/3 cup all purpose flour
• 1/3 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 375F and grease the muffin tin with cooking spray or butter, or use paper liners.
• In a small bowl toss the blueberries with 1 tbsp flour. Set aside.
• In another small bowl make the streusel topping by mixing together with a fork the flour and brown sugar. Then stir in the melted butter until incorporated and use your fingers to form thick crumbs. Set aside.
• In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and coarse salt. Set aside.
• In a larger mixing bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, melted butter, yogurt, vanilla extract and eggs until smooth. Add in the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until combined. 
• Then gently fold in the blueberries.
• Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cups. (Use an ice cream scoop to make this step easier if you have one). Then sprinkle the streusel topping over each muffin; dividing evenly between 12 muffins and pressing down the streusel topping gently into the top of the muffins.
• Drizzle the tops of each muffin with about a ½ tsp maple syrup. Bake for 24-26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean.
• Let the muffins cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before removing them to fully cool on a cooling rack. Store on the counter in a sealed container for up to 3 days.

These muffins are perfect to bake up for brunch or just a lovely treat on the weekend. Or, bake a batch to take for snack at work for the week ahead.

If you love blueberry pancakes as much as I do, these muffins are truly for you!
