BLUEBERRY SKYR MUFFINS
I fell in love with skyr when I visited Iceland a few years ago. It's a mild, thick yogurt and high in protein as an added bonus. I used blueberry-flavored skyr to make these muffins and it gave them such a tender texture!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray 16 muffin cups with cooking spray or line cups with paper liners.
- Combine 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Cut butter into the flour mixture until it is crumbly. Set crumb topping aside.
- Whisk 2 cups flour, baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt together in a large bowl, making a well in the center. Whisk eggs, granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup brown sugar together in a separate bowl. Stir in sour cream, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined. Pour into the well in the flour mixture and stir until batter is just combined without overmixing. Toss blueberries with 1 tablespoon flour in a small bowl and gently fold into the batter.
- Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full. Top each muffin with about 1 tablespoon of crumb mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed and muffins are lightly browned, 18 to 22 minutes. A toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins should come out clean. Cool in the tins for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh blueberries. Frozen blueberries can be used, but they will not be as flavorful.
- If you don't have skyr, you can substitute Greek yogurt. Note that the muffins may be slightly less tangy.
- Be sure to mix the wet and dry ingredients separately before combining them. This will help to ensure that the muffins are evenly mixed.
- Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough.
- Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. The muffins will rise as they bake.
- Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This usually takes about 20 minutes.
- Let the muffins cool in the muffin pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Enjoy the muffins warm or at room temperature.
