  • Author: Sarah
  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Cook Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 12 muffins

Ingredients

For the muffins

3 cups all purpose flour

1 1/2 cups white sugar

1 tsp salt

4 tsp baking powder

2/3 cup extra light olive oil (or vegetable oil)

2 eggs

2/3 cup milk

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp almond extract

2 cups fresh blueberries

For the crumb topping

1/2 cup brown sugar

2/3 cup all purpose flour

1/4 cup butter, at room temperature

1 tsp ground cinnamon


Instructions

Preheat oven to 400ºF. Grease muffin tin well or line with muffin liners. Lightly spray the top of the muffin pan with cooking spray so that the crumb topping doesn’t stick.

In a large bowl, use a fork to combine flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. In another bowl, mix the extra light olive oil, milk, eggs, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix with the flour mixture, just until flour is moistened, being careful not to over mix.  Gently fold in the blueberries. Fill the muffin cups right to the top. 

To make crumb topping

Combine brown sugar, flour, butter, and cinnamon. Mix with a fork, and sprinkle over muffins before baking.

Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
