My bakery-style Blueberry Muffins come topped with a buttery brown sugar streusel that takes their flavor over the top. Skip the coffee shop version; these homemade Blueberry Muffins can be yours in just 45 minutes.

Confession: I have an addiction to my coffee shop’s drive-through. It’s convenient, quick, and a java and pastry are the ultimate pick-me-up when my energy is crashing right around 3 p.m.

But that habit is starting to do a number on my budget, so I decided to recreate some of my favorite bakery case goodies at home. (And I may or may not have a fancy espresso machine hanging out in my online shopping cart. Decisions, decisions!)

I already shared my secrets for bakery-style Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins, Coffee Cake Muffins, and just-like-Starbucks Lemon Yogurt Cake. Now, I’ve taken to the test kitchen to perfect a classic Blueberry Muffin recipe.

They can be fresh from the oven just 45 minutes from now, so I have even fewer reasons to swing by the coffee shop.

With all the money I’ll be saving, I think that espresso machine is sounding like a pretty reasonable and worthy investment, don’t you think?

Recipe ingredients

Labeled ingredients for blueberry muffins.

At a Glance: Here is a quick snapshot of what ingredients are in this recipe.
Please see the recipe card below for specific quantities.

Ingredient notes

  • Blueberries: Stock up on 1 pint of fresh blueberries, then wash, drain, and pick them over. That means remove any straggler stems and toss any wrinkly or damaged berries. You can also use thawed frozen blueberries, wild or regular. (For additional fruit options, see “Recipe FAQs” below.)

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare a muffin pan with cupcake liners. In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups flour, 1 cup sugar, baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Set aside.

What is the best muffin pan?

When I bake my muffins, I always reach for my USA Pan 12-Cup Nonstick Muffin Pan. My muffins always come out easily and I like that it has a large overhang, so I can easily grip it with an oven mitt without squishing them. You can get it at Amazon for $29.95, and I also rounded up the best muffin pans if you’re looking for another option for your fluffiest muffins ever.

Recipe tips and variations

  • Yield: My Blueberry Muffin recipe creates 12 regular-sized muffins.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 4 days.
  • Freezer: Transfer Blueberry Muffins to an airtight container or freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy them, thaw the muffins at room temperature overnight, then reheat thawed muffins at 300 degrees for 3 to 5 minutes or until warm.
  • Ease up on the stirring: Don’t overmix; doing so results in less tender muffins. Your batter should be a little lumpy as you add it to the muffin pan.

Frequently Asked Questions

Could I try this muffin recipe with a different kind of fruit?

Definitely. Cherries, raspberries, chopped peaches, chopped nectarines, or chopped apples would all taste incredible incorporated into this muffin batter. Let your creativity take the lead, just stick with 2 cups of your favorite fresh or frozen fruit and cut it to about the same size of blueberries.

Why does the butter temperature matter?

You’ll notice that I call for melted butter for the muffin batter and cold butter for the streusel. This isn’t just to keep you guessing, I promise! The melted butter mixes seamlessly into the batter, while the cold butter is essential to create that crave-able crumbly texture for the muffin topping. Try not to overwork (and overheat) the streusel so it stays coarsely textured.

Can I make these in a different size of muffin pan?

You sure can. Mini muffin tin, jumbo muffin tin; do you! You’ll want to adjust the cooking time to avoid over- or undercooking.

How can I add even more flavor to Blueberry Muffins?

Add 1 tablespoon lemon zest to batter, if desired.

  1. My 13-year-old son found this recipe and made a batch on his own. They were fantastic! He delivered several to neighbours who raved about them. He has already asked me to buy more blueberries so that he can make a double-batch to share with his class. Thank you for the wonderful and easy to follow recipe!

  7. I never considered myself a baker but rhis recipe will chnge your mind. There’s quite a few ingredients but are well worth the effort. These muffins are delicious. Plan to try some of your other recipes. Thank you for sharing, Meggan.5 stars

  8. I loved the recipe, I just made the base. I used frozen blueberries and blackberries from last year’s harvest and it was delicious.For topping I had some crunchy hazelnut to use up so I used that, it was great.5 stars

  9. These are the best blueberry muffins I’ve ever had!! Heck the best muffins I’ve had PERIOD. These were truly incredible. They were moist, nice and light, have a pronounced blueberry flavor, and the crumble on top just takes this whole thing to the next level. It was easy to make, not super labor intensive, and very straight toward. If you’re looking for a recipe to pass down generation to generation, let it be this one!5 stars

  10. Hi Megan I love your recipes. Did you use salted or unsalted butter? I just wanted to ask for clarification. Thanks so much keep up the amazing content 💕

    Reply

    1. Thank you so much for your kind words, it means a lot! 🙂 I tend to keep salted butter on hand (and I prefer the taste) so that’s what I use here, but unsalted butter is fine too. I usually list if one is needed over the other in a recipe if it makes a difference. So unless it specifies “unsalted butter,” I use salted. I just do. I like it more. Thank you so much again! – Meggan

  11. Excellent! These are my favorite blueberry muffins! Only tweak for me is I add my homemade vanilla extract because I will find any excuse to add it lol. Cannot recommend this recipe enough!5 stars

  12. These muffins are delicious. I have printed the recipe to keep – I make mini muffins for my toddlers to last us for two weeks. Perfect frozen, I am high altitude so I added some extra milk, and shredded zucchini and chia seeds so I can get some good stuff in there for the kids. Perfect recipe!5 stars

    Reply

  14. This is my go to recipe for Blueberry muffins. I personally use frozen blueberries, I just find them easier to work with. I always add 2Tbsp of Flax and 2Tbsp of Chia seeds and use only 1/2 c sugar instead of a whole cup in the batter. I have made this recipe several times but, today I mixed it up a bit by adding grated orange peal and I replaced half the milk with orange juice. It is hard to mess up this recipe. It leaves room for personal taste. The streusel topping is great as it is or you can throw in some grated lemon or orange. Slivered almonds are also a nice addition.5 stars

    1. It’s great that you personalize this recipe to add your own twist and yours sounds yummy! Thank you! – Meggan

  15. Very delicious!! I haven’t tried many muffin recipes but I can say that this one is very nice I didn’t think they would turn out this good in taste.5 stars

    Reply

  16. These were really moist and the muffin wasn’t overly sweet. I used sour cream instead of milk 1:1 (someone used up in the last of the milk in their cereal) and it turned out so well, I may even stick with this option next time. I topped some with sugar crystals instead of the streusel. Will definitely make again!5 stars

  18. Finally found a blueberry muffin recipe that doesn’t have buttermilk and the blueberries stay evenly disbursed in the batter. Great recipe, thank you!5 stars

    Reply

  21. My toddler and I made this today. It was so good that she even couldn’t stop eating the batter. I didn’t have enough all purpose flour so I used 1/2 cup all purpose flour and 1 cup oat flour and 1/2 cup gluten free flour and it still came out super fluffy. Oh and I just put it the batter in a square pan and baked it for 28 minutes and it came out perfect!

    1. Sounds delicious Elizabeth. Hope you both had fun making (and eating) them! – Meggan

  22. These muffins are absolutely delicious! Moist and tender with plenty of bursts of flavor from a combo of fresh and frozen blueberries. I didn’t make any changes to recipe except, I did add a zest of one lemon when I mixed in the dry mixture into wet. I just like the pairing of lemons and berries and had extra lemons on hand. Everyone, raved about them and they didn’t last long!

  23. I love the smell of fresh blueberry muffins and this recipe was great! I did add 2 tbsp of water but it worked just fine. I think next time I’ll try adding lemon juice instead of water. I sprinkled mine with just raw sugar and the tops sparkled. Thank you for this recipe and for helping my house smell amazing! Saving this recipe for sure.

    Reply

    1. Hi Christine, thank you so much for trying the recipe and I’m so happy you enjoyed it! The lemon juice is such a nice touch, I know other readers have done that with great results. I love the idea of making them sparkle with raw sugar. Thank you again for your support and I hope you have a great weekend! Take care – Meggan

  24. My 65-year old husband said these are the best blueberry muffins he has ever had!! It had been years since I have used a sifter, but this recipe looked worth the extra effort and it paid off! Thank you!5 stars

  25. I have made these twice now. Both times they were fantastic! I did have to add about 2 TBS more milk both times. Could have something to do with altitude/humidity differences. Just be aware. If it seems too thick add a tad bit more milk. This is an easy to follow with good results recipe. I am the worlds worst baker and if I can make these great, so can you.5 stars

    1. Hi Stephanie, I’m relieved that you made the recipe work for you. Could be humidity or altitude depending on where you live! But here, you knocked it out of the park. So let’s update your title from World’s Worst Baker to World’s Okayest Baker. 🙂 My sister calls herself that, I always laugh. But seriously you did great, I’m so happy and relieved that the recipe worked out for you. Due to your own genius! Thanks again Stephanie and take care.

  27. This was delicious! I have been ordering blueberry muffins for a week and kept being delivered some replacement, that was not a blueberry muffin. I finally decided to just make my own! These are so much better than anything I would have ordered. I live at a high altitude and so I ended up adding more milk as the batter was too thick but that is common at high altitudes. I also added 2 tsp fresh lemon juice which was delicious.

    Reply

    1. Hi Patricia, good for you for adding more milk! Another commenter did that over the weekend too; she added 2 tbsp more of milk to adjust for the high altitude. You’re a great baker! The lemon juice sounds so good too. Other people have done that, such a great idea. Thanks so much for trying the recipe and coming back to leave a comment. I appreciate you so much! Take care and have a great week. 🙂 -Meggan

  28. These tasted great but the bottoms crumbled when I tried to remove them. Are they supposed to be baked in a jumbo size muffin pan? and also I didn’t use liners just sprayed the pan with cooking spray. Could that be why they crumbled?

    Reply

    1. Hi Claudia, I’m so sorry that happened. No, I’ve never made them in a jumbo-sized muffin pan. It’s just a standard muffin tin. I would only forgo paper liners if you have a high-quality nonstick pan where you know it’s going to perform (like I have a USA Standard muffin pan and nothing sticks to it; it’s always great even without liners). Cooking spray usually works but you might have needed to use more. Is there any chance there is an altitude/humidity adjustment that needed to take place? I don’t have that kind of expertise. I’m just wondering what else could have gone wrong. I’m really sorry the bottoms crumbled, that’s sad. -Meggan

  29. I loved the muffins. Super easy to make and delicious and quick. I added mini m&m and turned out beautiful because the color of the m&ms spreaded out. They look festive.5 stars

    1. I’m so glad you enjoyed them! I’ll have to try M&Ms next time! Thanks Nicole! -Meggan

  30. Delicious! I made these muffins recently and they were a big success. So tasty. Thank you for a great recipe!5 stars

    Reply

  31. Since my blueberries were not very flavorful, I added the zest of one lemon directly to the batter and all the juice of that same lemon to the blueberries and folded them and any juice into the batter. The results were fantastic, just enough tart to help balance the sweetness of the streusel topping.5 stars

    1. Hi Andrea, thank you so much for this comment! I’m glad you made the recipe work for you, I bet all that extra lemon flavor was so delicious. I love lemon and blueberry together. I always love reading the comments from confident bakers! Thanks for trying the recipe, I’m very grateful. Take care – Meggan.

  32. I made these for my family and they said they were the best muffins they ever had. Loved the crunch on top and so moist inside with a flavor burst of blueberries in every bite. Absolutely delicious.5 stars

    1. Hi Pat, thank you so much!!! Yes these muffins are so overloaded with blueberries, but not in a bad way thank goodness.

  35. I made these today, even though I had to add extra milk to loosen up the batter they still turned out very good. Bursting with fresh, blueberry flavor and a tender crumb they rival any bakery blueberry muffin. This one is a keeper!!5 stars

  38. These muffins were so yummy! and fyi I didn’t have enough blueberries so I added 2 old bananas and it was delicious! I also didn’t have baking powder so I substituted with 1/2 tsp of baking soda and 1 tsp of lemon juice!! Will definitely use this recipe for years!!5 stars

  39. Amazing muffins! I will say that I live in Idaho where it is suuuper DRY. I ended up having to add a bit more milk to the batter to fold the blueberries in because it was too thick to stir and was more like a dough. It did the trick and the muffins came out perfect.5 stars

    Reply

    1. Hi Erika, I’m sorry the batter was dry! I’m honestly relieved that you 1). noticed and 2). were able to fix it! Sorry that happened, I’m not sure why, but these things happen I guess. I’m just glad it worked out. Thank you so much for trying the recipe and leaving a comment. Take care! -Meggan

  42. My whole family loves it! It was my first time baking muffins too. I switched all purpose flour to self raising flour (which I need to cut the baking soda to 1 teaspoon).

    The muffin overall have great balance of sweetness to it, just the right amount and the cinnamon really elevate the overall flavour.

    Will be making another batch of muffin but this time I was thinking of adding blueberries jam to it! Thank you so much for your recipe truly deserves 5* ratings!!!5 stars

Take care! -Meggan

  44. I made these yesterday.i cut the sugar from one cup to 3/4 cup. I figured the steusal topping was enough sweetness. They are perfect muffins.( and I’ve tried a lot of recipes) Great crumb, loads of blueberries and easy to make. Thank you, Meggan! I’ll be making this again!

  46. Excellent recipe! I made these for my boyfriend’s birthday, and he loved them! I had to sub baking soda for powder, and added lemon juice and zest, and they came out beautifully. Not too sweet, and perfectly moist after 18 minutes. Next time I’ll make more of the streusel to top them with, because I enjoy the extra cinnamon/sugar crunch. I’ll be adding these to my regular rotation of baked goods!5 stars

  52. My wife and I just made the recipe and thought I overmixed. Also, needed to add a few more minutes since the muffins varied a bit in size. My wife thought that more butter in streusel would help to even out tops.
    In spite of all that, they came out great.
    Never had muffins with so many berries. Yum!5 stars

  54. Followed the directions as stated and did not change any ingredients. These muffins looked phenomenal-however were tasteless. Blueberries were perfect throughout muffin but the taste just didn’t pop. Topping had the most flavor. They were also very dry and extremely messy to eat (though mess factor never gets part of my rating -just saying). Overall edible-but I’m still on the search for the perfect blueberry muffin.

    Reply

    1. Hi Sherry, I’m so sorry that you didn’t like the muffins. The only thing that comes to mind is the butter – did you use unsalted butter by chance? That may have led to a more bland muffin; I don’t usually use unsalted butter so I don’t know how that would affect the taste. I’m sorry again that the recipe didn’t work for you. You mentioned they were dry, so they may have baked too long based on your oven’s temperature. So sorry again. -Meggan

  55. Really liked these, I chopped my frozen blueberries before folding them in because I dont like huge chunks and used mini muffin tins, was delicious!! Will definitely make again in the future 😉5 stars

Hope this recipe is good… just put in oven But very irritating instructions…about 1/3 of the ingredients don’t have amounts…. after trying to find in this google site for 1/2 hr finally noticed they would send to your email.. which i finally did & after Forever trying to find the balance of the measurement Finally got in an email.. Frustrating…..is that the whole purpose of not giving all measurements.. to get your email?

    1. Hi Marlena, I’m sorry for the frustration. I think you might have missed the recipe card itself in the post. You can see the amounts by clicking the “Jump to Recipe” button near the top of the page, clicking “Blueberry Muffins” in the Table of Contents, clicking the link below the photo of the ingredients, or scrolling down the page until you reach the full recipe above the box where you were able to leave this comment. Sorry again. – Meggan

    2. All the measurements are right there in the instructions. Did you arrow down the page to the actual recipe?

    1. Hi Delores, I’m so happy you loved them! You’re welcome! Lemon is great in this recipe, I like to add lemon zest to the batter (from 1 lemon), other readers have substituted the vanilla for lemon extract (I would try both!), and others have added lemon juice to the batter. I hope you have fun experimenting! Please write again! – Meggan

  60. We absolutely loved them! Baking again this week. My mother said these were the best muffins she’s ever had, and I followed this recipe except did extra strussle toping. Yum! Chefs kiss 💋 😘!5 stars

  65. This recipe was spot-on! Even the topping measurements was written out perfectly in the instructions so I didn’t have any extra falling over the baking cups.

    Very tasty! My 3 kids loved it! Even my 7-year old who does not like blueberry muffins usually. I think the 1 cup of sugar and the crumb topping was the game-changer for her!5 stars

  71. This is a great recipe for taste. I had to reduce the flour to 11/2cups instead of 2, otherwise my batter was too thick. But everything else worked out great.4 stars

    1. Hi Linda, I’m so happy you loved them. This batter does tend to be thicker. I’m happy you were able to adjust it to your liking. – Meggan

    2. I thought it was thick too, I think it was too much baking powder because they were dry

  72. Wonderful recipe! Very moist with great flavor. Will definitely be using this recipe again. I doubled recipe and made 12 jumbo muffins. Adjusted baking time to approx. 40 minutes. I stock up on blueberries in early summer and used some I had frozen which I did not defrost but instead tossed them with about 1 Tablespoon flour. Also added zest of one lemon. Perfect!!5 stars

    1. Hi Gina, sorry for the confusion. It’s 1/2 cup milk. I double checked to make sure it was there, and I can see it. I’m sorry you’re not able to. – Meggan

  74. Wonderful recipe. The best Blueberry Muffin I have ever made and at 79 yrs I have made a lot. Beautiful light texture. The crumb topping is very light and makes a thin crisp crust which hold up for a few days. This is a keeper. I will use the batter recipe and adapt to other flavors. Very easy to put together.. I wii also try the batter recipe in a 9×9 to make a coffee cake with apples and salted Carmel swirled through. Do yourself a favor and try this. You will not be disappointed. Thanks for such a a great recipe.5 stars

  75. I make this muffin recipe often switching between the recipe as is (which is perfect) and adding lemon zest and extract.
    My daughter loves a blueberry lemon muffin, I follow this recipe and swap out the vanilla extract for lemon and add lemon zest to the batter.5 stars

  88. Best blueberry muffins I’ve ever made. So delicious. I used unthawed blueberries and had no issues except the batter was thicker. Would probably cut back on the fruit by 1/2 cup…or not. Streamed the butter into eggs while whisking to keep from cooking eggs. Thank you for this muffin game changer.5 stars

    Reply

    2. Your melted butter should not be so hot you’re concerned about cooking raw egg. Give it a minute or two to cool.

  89. Excellent, made these for my family on Christmas morning and they were a hit all around! I did add my secret ingredient that I add to all my quick sweet bread recipes (banana, cranberry, etc) 1/2 c sour cream for extra moisture and combined with my husband’s fresh made butter – SOOO GOOOOOD! Thank you for a wonderful recipe to enjoy!

  99. Page is excellent – great pictures, easy to follow directions. If you don’t have a pastry cutter, use two dinner knives crisscross cutting through streusel ingredients until you have small, pea-like balls. Tempting to view and delicious.

  100. How are you adding your melted butter to your eggs without cooking them? I’ve tried cooling the butter down to room temperature and adding in a little dribble at a time, and I always end up with a bowl of half scrambled eggs.

    Reply

    1. Hi Nora, thank you for your question! It sounds like you’re doing everything I would do, except for making sure the eggs are whisked first. I also usually have my eggs out for a bit before making my batters, so the eggs are closer to room temperature. I hope this helps! – Meggan

  103. Wow – these are amazing! I doubled the batter recipe but forgot to double the berries (whoops!) but the ratio was still pretty good – I probably used 2.5c instead of the called for 4. I used frozen blackberries. Some of mine kind of overflowed so next time I will fill all the cups a bit less – about 1/2 vs 2/3+. Will definitely keep this recipe on hand! Thank you!5 stars

  105. Really yummy! I used frozen blueberries and the batter was impossible to mix without thinning it out with milk. I added about 1/3 cup of milk to allow me to do this. I made 12 muffins, and in my gas stove, they took 40 mins to fully cook. Great recipe, thanks!5 stars

  108. This is my favorite blueberry muffin recipe I’ve found! I made 6 giant blueberry muffins, so I cooked them a little longer at a lower temp, but they are delicious. Salt in the strudel topping?! Game. Changer. How have I never thought to do that before?5 stars

  109. Way too many blueberries. So many, and the dough so thick, that there was no way to evenly fold them in. Some “muffins” ended up being more a cluster of blueberries with some dough around them.

    To anyone that is planning on making this be aware that the batter is a little thicker than usual. Also, you may have to put the muffins in for more time. Using a toothpick and waiting until it comes out of the muffin clean was the key for me!5 stars

    1. Hi Suzanne, thank you for your comment and suggestion. I’ve updated the top portion of the recipe card, the bake time should be about 18-22, but ovens vary and temperatures can fluctuate.

  127. Can you make the batter ahead of time? So that way you can just fill the muffin tins in the morning without much prep.

    Reply

    1. Hi Alexia, thank you for your question. The batter should be able to be refrigerated up to 6 days. I would add the struesel toping right before baking. I haven’t tried this myself as I prefer to warm up the already baked muffins, or freeze the baked muffins, thaw overnight, and warm up before serving. Please write back and let me know how you like these muffins! – Meggan

    1. You’re so welcome, Frieda! I understand about the strudel, sometimes it just rolls off the batter. I like to gently push in the crumbs to make them stick. Happy baking! – Meggan

  130. Why are they coming out with the filling spilling out the top when i followed the directions perfectly this is my third attempt and i keep getting the sams result. Bad.

    Reply

    1. Hi S.A, I’m so sorry you’re having trouble with the muffins. The muffin batter should reach the top of the liners, and the topping should stick somewhat to the batter. While baking, the muffin tops should rise to a nice, round top. There is a video in the recipe card under the notes that shows step-by-step how the muffins are made, that may help you troubleshoot exactly what is not going right when you’re making this recipe. I’m sorry again they didn’t turn out! – Meggan

    1. Hi Sofia, thank you for your question! This recipe was developed for baking powder, and doesn’t have the acid needed to activate baking soda. It might rise, but will likely taste metallic-like and off because it doesn’t have an acid component. So sorry about that. I would recommend using baking powder, or using a recipe that was written with baking soda so your muffins aren’t ruined. Please let me know if you have any other questions! – Meggan

  137. Hi, I love this recipe! These are perfect and I al seats get compliments when I make them. I was wondering if I could add lemon to this to make them lemon-blueberry muffins? If so, how much zest/ juice should I use? Thanks so much!

  141. So I just tried this recipe again. I fixed the streusel issue and remembered to make it this time before baking and added the cinnamon. Also, instead of using blueberries, I used the wild blackberries that I picked yesterday. I still used the mini bread loaf pans. Loved the way it came out this time and the flavor with the cinnamon did make a difference. I wasn’t sure with the blackberries if it would be too mushy since they are a different berry, but it came out really well. I will continue to use this recipe. Thanks5 stars

I miss placed my recipe for the blueberry muffins and looked online found this one and made it, totally brilliant recipe.

  147. So I made this but I didn’t have any muffin pans, but I did have a few tiny bread loaf pans and put them into that instead. I also messed up the crumble recipe and forgot to cut butter into it before sprinkling it on top. I wound up putting small slices of butter on top of the loafs after I removed them from the oven and got a nice crumble style coating on it. I didn’t have any cinnamon, so left that out. The flavor seemed a little bland, I wonder what could have kicked it up. Maybe some lemon? I don’t know but overall like the way they came out.5 stars

    1. Hi Kevin, thank you so much for your comment. I’m glad the streusel was able to be saved! The cinnamon would have definitely helped the flavor profile. Some times I like to add some orange zest to the batter, lemon would work too! Take care! – Meggan

    1. Hi Karen, thank you so much for the question! I haven’t tested this recipe with buttermilk instead of milk.

  157. I just made this recipe and because of my own fault they taste a bit like flour lol. This is the first recipe my daughter and I have made in her learning tower and I didn’t sift the dry ingredients like it said. I learned from my mistake and definitely plan on doing that next time. I was able to make 24 mini muffins and 2 regular sized muffins. I’m new to baking and have a habit of over baking things so I pulled them out a bit too soon. The muffins were fully cooked but I should’ve left them in longer to brown some since they were very light. Overall I love the recipe and it’s super easy. They’ll definitely taste better next time since I’ll actually sift the dry ingredients lol. It is toddler and mom approved despite the slight flour taste (which once again is on me , not the recipe)

    Reply

    1. Hi Katelyn, thank you so much for your question! These would be a perfect toddler snack as mini muffins. I would bake them at 400 degrees for about 9 to 11 minutes. Since oven temperatures can vary, I recommend keeping an oven thermometer in the oven to make sure the temperature is right. (Sometimes they can be off.) You will want to bake until muffin centers bounce back when lightly pressed. I hope you both love them! – Meggan

  159. Best blueberry muffins that I have ever baked. The batter is stiff enough to keep the blueberries distributed and rich enough to wrap them in glory.

I substituted with the following ingredients: King Arthur 1:1 Gluten Free flour, cane sugar, lactose free milk, and lactose free butter (Green Valley). I skipped the streusel topping and we were glad we did as the muffins themselves were plenty sweet. With this ingredient change I had enough batter to make 16 muffins.

  165. I made these with sugar with zero glycemic index (monk fruit sweetener) and they were delicious. However the batter was way thicker than I expected. Maybe it was the difference in sugars. The batter was nearly like pie crust dough. I did spoon and press into the muffin tin papers and they baked fine and taste great. Not exactly diet food with all the butter but better for sugar intake.
    Full disclosure : I used the brown sugar in the toppings)

  166. These muffins are amazing! I’ve made the recipe twice. I have blueberry bushes, so I am able to go and pick them fresh right before I bake them. I do have one question. I followed this recipe to a T. and I’m getting enough to make 24 muffins instead of 12. I’m using the standard muffin tin. The second time I made them I did 12 regular muffins and 24 mini muffins. I’m curious if anyone else has gotten more than a dozen out of this. No complaints though!

    Reply

    1. Hi Tammy, thank you so much for writing! I can only imagine how wonderful your muffins were with fresh blueberries! Yum! To answer your question, “standard” muffin tins can still vary in volume size, a muffin tin with cups that are 2 3/4″ x 1 1/8″ have a volume of 1/4 cup each, while a tin that is 2 3/4″ x 1 1/2″ has a volume of 1/2 cup. I hope this helps! – Meggan

    2. Hi Tammy, I often find that muffin recipes make more than they say. For this recipe I used paper muffin liners that were quite a bit taller than the metal cups of my muffin tin. That meant I could put more in them and they came out just right. If I had poured batter directly into the muffin tins there would have more (but smaller) muffins. Hope that helps!

  178. Do you use the middle or lower oven rack to bake these? I hate when the muffins burn on
    the bottom.

    Reply

    1. Hi Gloria, I usually bake my muffins on the middle rack. I also tend to rotate pans halfway through baking time to ensure they brown evenly. If you’re finding that muffins burn from the bottom, you can put another baking pan below the muffins as a buffer to help absorb some of the heat, and making sure that the oven is preheated well to avoid hot spots. Please let me know if you have any other questions! – Meggan

  179. These were delicious and easy! I added a little orange blossom water to the batter and did a little almond flour in the topping and they turned out great. My house was pretty warm so my “cold” butter didn’t stay cold for long, instead of crumb topping I just pressed the topping into a doughy disc and topped each one and to be honest, I’d probably do that again because there was no mess.

    1. Hi Mal, yes! Another reader has and loved them! The bake time will be a couple minutes more, about 20 to 25 minutes. I hope you love them! – Meggan

    1. Hi Mae! I don’t think it matters in this recipe, so use whichever you have on hand. I usually only specify which if there is a specific reason to use one or the other. Hope this helps! Enjoy! – Meggan

  191. They were warm clouds of blueberry air! I loved this recipe! I added lemon zest and the juice of one lemon because I love the lemon/blueberry pairing. Heaven!

    1. Thank you so much for your comment, Jan! I absolutely love your description! 😍 Take care! – Meggan

  192. The recipe is great, the only problem is that the muffin batter is sticky and hard to get into the pan. Other than that, I have no other feedback for this recipe! The muffins taste so good-and aren’t too sweet 😉5 stars

  195. Horrible the batter was so thick and even though I thoroughly sprayed the muffin pan they stuck and couldn’t get them out without them breaking into pieces. Never again will I make these

    1. Hi Cathy, I’m sorry they didn’t turn out well. I recommend using cucpcake/muffin liners to prevent sticking. If not, oiling the muffin tin really well and allowing the muffins to cool before removing them will help with sticking. I hope you find a recipe that is more to your liking. Take care and sorry again. – Meggan

  202. These are ridiculously good. Made them for a work party and everyone loved them. Doubled the recipe and still came out great. Batter is pretty thick but that made scooping them into the muffin cups a lot more easy.5 stars

  203. I was looking for a muffin recipe to make for our church on Sunday and I thank goodness, I found your recipe. These muffins are amazing. I used (thawed)frozen blueberries and the texture was still amazing. Thank you so much for sharing. I will be making these for years to come.5 stars

    1. Thank you so much for the comment, Pat! Glad you loved them! I’m going to try adding pecans as well, thank you for the suggestion! – Meggan

  205. Hubby words” Don’t loose this recipe. I just mixed everything in one bowl. (I bad) I also added probably 1/4-1/3 more milk. Probably because I did not measure flour by the scope and pour . He has already eaten 2.5 stars

  207. This recipe is amazing! Even substituting the eggs for a banana works well. I will definitely be making this again and saving it as my go-to muffin recipe!5 stars

    1. Hi Sandy, sounds like you had some wonderfully fresh and potent lemons to work with! Hope you’re able to adjust it to your liking next time! Take care! – Meggan

  212. These were fantastic! The only changes I made were I cut the butter in half and substituted a quarter cup of yogurt. Then for the topping, I sprinkled them just simply with some turbinado sugar. My family absolutely loved these and said they were the best muffins I’ve ever made. Your recipe is a keeper! Thank you so much!5 stars

    1. Hi Valdez, yes! You’ll just have to adjust the cooking time, so keep an eye on them. Take care! – Meggan

  216. Went to a cute coffee shop and my son was devouring the blueberry muffin. I came home thinking I should make some. This recipe is perfect, fresh and delicious just like a fresh bakery. My sons enjoyed the muffins and wanted to eat them at every meal until they were gone. Even my husband (who’s not a muffin fan!) even praised them! Thank you! Well done!5 stars

  219. Made these this morning and they turned our great! I doubled the recipe and got 28 muffins. The batter seemed VERY thick when I added the wet to the dry mix, so I added a little extra milk when folding in the frozen blueberries. I also had to bake mine for about ~35 min.

  221. Wow- these are delicious! So moist and fresh tasting with the abundance of blueberries. The only thing I did different was to use half of the topping, making them less sweet and just right for me. Great recipe!5 stars

    1. Hi Peggy, I would estimate about 1 hour. I haven’t tried this specific recipe as a loaf, so I recommend keeping an eye on it as it bakes. – Meggan

  226. Hi Maggie, I’m so sorry this batch didn’t turn out well. I feel just awful. A couple things may have gone wrong. First, I would make sure your oven is preheated well, and double check the oven temperature and if your not already using an oven thermometer, I highly recommend it. Each oven is unique, and their actual internal temperatures vary. Having the thermometer inside the oven will let you know if any adjustments need to be made. Second, if the batter is overmixed, it can become dense and that would cause it to become gooey in the center. You’ll want to mix the egg mixture into the flour mixture until it is combined (will still be a little lumpy, though) and fold in the blueberries rather than stir them. A rubber spatula is the best tool to fold them in with. Lastly, make sure the strudel topping is crumbly, and you may want to keep it in the refrigerator while you fill the muffin tins so it stays cold. Use a patting motion to get to to stick to the batter, rather than mixing it into the top of the muffin. I hope these tips help your next batch come out wonderfully. Please write back if you have any more questions. Sorry again! – Meggan
