Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (not packed)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (chilled and cut into tiny pieces)
  • 3 cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour (divided)
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 large egg (at room temperature)
  • 2 large egg yolks (at room temperature)
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 1/3 cup full-fat sour cream
  • 1 and 1/2 cups blueberries

Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Rubber spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Parchment paper or muffin liners

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Add 6 tablespoons of chilled unsalted butter cut into tiny pieces. Using a fork or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 3 cups plus 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of ground nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Make sure everything is well combined.
  3. In another bowl, beat together 6 tablespoons of room temperature unsalted butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and 1/3 cup of light brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Add 1 large egg and 2 large egg yolks to the butter mixture, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 2 teaspoons of pure vanilla extract until combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, combine 3/4 cup of whole milk and 1/3 cup of full-fat sour cream. Gradually pour this mixture into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
  6. Slowly add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet mixture, folding with a rubber spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  7. Gently fold in 1 and 1/2 cups of blueberries, taking care not to crush them.
  8. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line your muffin tin with parchment paper or muffin liners. Spoon the batter evenly into each muffin cup, filling them about 3/4 full. Top each muffin with the crumb topping you prepared earlier.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The tops should be golden brown and slightly crisp.
  10. Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your Jumbo Blueberry Crumb Muffins warm or at room temperature!

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute unsalted butter with coconut oil.
  • Frozen blueberries can be used, just don't thaw them first.
  • Store muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
