Blueberry Streusel Muffins with Lemon Glaze
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for streusel)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for streusel)
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold (for streusel)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for lemon glaze)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (for lemon glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour, 1/2 cup of sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix together melted butter, eggs, and milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of flour and 1/4 cup of sugar. Cut in 2 tablespoons of cold butter using a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle the streusel over the muffin batter in the cups.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- In a small bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle the lemon glaze over the cooled muffins. Allow the glaze to set before serving. Enjoy!
Blueberry streusel muffins with a zesty lemon glaze have a rich history dating back to the 19th century. This delightful treat originated in Europe and gained popularity in the United States during the early 20th century. Renowned chefs like Julia Child and Ina Garten have contributed their own unique twists to this classic recipe, making it a staple in many households. The best version of this dish can be found in quaint bakeries in New England, where fresh blueberries are abundant. The key to perfecting this recipe lies in using plump, juicy blueberries and a tangy lemon glaze to balance the sweetness of the streusel topping. For a unique twist, some bakers incorporate a hint of cinnamon into the streusel for an extra layer of flavor. Whether enjoyed for breakfast or as a midday snack, these muffins are a delightful indulgence for any occasion.
