Ingredients

Servings

For streusel topping:

  • 6 tablespoons butter melted, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup oats quick cooking
  • 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Pinch kosher salt

For muffins:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 teaspoons thyme fresh leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon extract
  • 1/2 cup butter room temperature, unsalted
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 egg large
  • 1 pint blueberries fresh

For glaze:

  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice fresh

Instructions

For the streusel topping:

  1. In a small bowl add all ingredients and stir well to combine. Set aside.

For the muffins: 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a muffin pan with paper liners, set aside.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl add flour, baking powder, fresh thyme leaves, and kosher salt. Whisk to combine and set aside.
  3. In a small bowl (or use your liquid measuring cup) add buttermilk, lemon zest, vanilla bean paste, and lemon extract. Stir to combine and set aside.
  4. In the bowl of an electric mixer add butter and brown sugar.
  5. Bean on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  6. Add in the eggs, one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition, and mix until just combined.
  7. Lower the mixer speed to low and slowly alternate between adding the flour and buttermilk mixture until all the ingredients have been added.
  8. Gently stir in the fresh blueberries trying not to break them as you stir.
  9. Fill your muffin pans about 3/4 of the way full and smooth the top as best as possible.
  10. Top each muffin with a handful of streusel topping. If the topping sets up a bit (the butter might firm up a bit) just break it up with your hands. You want to use all the topping so don’t be scared to really top those muffins.
  11. Bake for about 25 minutes or until the muffin is fully cooked. You can test your muffin by inserting a toothpick into the center and when removed it should be clean.
  12. Let your muffins cool and top with drizzle.

For the glaze: 

  1. Whisk together until smooth. If it’s too thick add a little more lemon juice. If it’s too thin add a little more powdered sugar.
