Categories     Breakfast

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 cups (375g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup (5 Tablespoons; 80g) unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1/3 cup (80ml) vegetable oil
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/3 cup (80g) sour cream or yogurt, at room temperature*
1 cup (240ml) milk, at room temperature*
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 and 1/2 cups (170g) fresh or frozen blueberries (do not thaw)
optional: coarse sugar for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425°F (218°C). Generously grease a jumbo 6-count muffin pan with butter or nonstick spray (nonstick spray recommended) or line with muffin liners. Set aside.
  • Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon (if using) together in a large bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk the melted butter, oil, sugar, and eggs together until combined. Then whisk in the sour cream, milk, and vanilla extract. Mixture will be pale yellow. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and fold together with a rubber spatula or wooden spoon until completely combined. Use a whisk to rid any large lumps of flour, if needed. Avoid overmixing. The batter will be thick. Fold in the blueberries.
  • Divide batter between each muffin cup, filling all the way to the top. Sprinkle with coarse sugar (for added crunch, recommended!). Bake at 425°F for 5 minutes, then, keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (177°C) and continue to bake for 25-30 minutes or until the tops are lightly golden brown and centers are set. Stick a toothpick in the center of a muffin to test for doneness. If it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • Allow to cool for 10 minutes in pan before serving.
  • Cover leftover muffins and store at room temperature for 5 days or in the refrigerator for 1 week. Muffins freeze well for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator or on the counter.

JUMBO BLUEBERRY MUFFINS WITH STREUSEL TOPPING



Jumbo Blueberry Muffins With Streusel Topping image

This is just as successful made in regular size tins as well just reduce the baking time --- if using frozen blueberries I like to partially thaw them firstly after coating them with sugar, the partially thawed blueberries give a wonderful marbling effect to the baked muffins, but don't make the mistake of thawing too much it will effect the baking of the muffins

Time 40m

Yield 6-7 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries

  • In a large bowl, sift together, the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar, sift again (sifting twice!); add in the lemon zest and the coated blueberries; toss gently to mix.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, cream (or milk, if using), melted butter and the almond extract until well combined.
