Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for crumble topping)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (for crumble topping)
  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cubed (for crumble topping)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for crumble topping)

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, mix the vegetable oil, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in the fresh blueberries.
  6. In a small bowl, mix 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, cold butter, and cinnamon until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  7. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the batter.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  9. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use fresh blueberries for best results, but frozen can be used without thawing. Avoid overmixing the batter to keep muffins light and fluffy. Customize the topping with chopped nuts if desired.
