This is the perfect blueberry muffin recipe. Moist muffins with a sweet crumbly topping. This is my go-to recipe for breakfast treats to share.
Blueberry muffins are a favorite around here. I’ve been making them for years. Everyone loves them.My husband could eat his weight in fresh blueberry muffins and the girls go crazy for them as well. Over the years I’ve tried many recipes, different ingredients, fresh blueberries, and frozen. This recipe calls for fresh blueberries and it’s an absolute keeper!
Perfect Blueberry Muffins
I think it’s the crumb topping that does it. It’s sweet with a little crunch, it’s heavenly. Also, the fresh blueberries are perfect, and the batter didn’t turn blue like it does with frozen berries. 
They really are the best ever blueberry muffins.

Becky says
March 26, 2014 at 7:55 amI am currently making these and have found my mixture to be way too doughy, it’s extremely thick and not batterlike. I have had 2 others check out what I did wrong and I have followed this recipe just like it said. I don’t know what liquid to add to it now to get it a muffin type consistency….more buttermilk, oil?

sector don’t understand this. You should continue your
writing. I’m sure, you have a huge readers’ base already!

November 22, 2015 at 10:09 amThese really are the best blueberry muffins. I used plain yogurt and added extra egg white and extra blueberries. My husband is wild over these. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

October 20, 2018 at 11:05 amHi Chelsea,
Gorgeous muffins but in the 2nd batch I made some changes
Doubled the amount of blueberries.
Don’t like too much sweetness so tried two things for crumble top,
both worked fabulously.
1. used granola with dried berries and mixed nuts
2. broke up `Wheatabix’ mixed in cinnamon and pistachio nuts
Will put some in with blueberries next time.
