Ingredients

• Topping:
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup white sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1 cup fresh blueberries*
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup butter, cubed
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400. Grease 10 regular or 8 large muffin cups, or line with paper liners.

Combine flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Measure oil in 1 cup measuring cup; add egg and enough milk to fill cup. Mix this with flour mixture. Batter will be very thick. Fill muffin cups to top. Distribute blueberries evenly on top of muffins and then gently push them down into batter. Sprinkle with crumb topping mixture.

To make Topping: Mix together sugar, flour, butter and cinnamon. Mix with fork and sprinkle over muffins before baking.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until done. Yield: 8 large or 10 regular muffins.

*Frozen blueberries work if you do not let them thaw out. Increase baking time by a few minutes, making sure you do not over-bake.
