Ingredients
- 3 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup white sugar
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup sour cream
- ¼ cup applesauce
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 ½ cups frozen blueberries
For Streusel topping
- ½ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup all purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons cold butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
- Grease a muffin tin with spray oil or line with paper liners.
- In a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt and mix together well .
- In a large bowl, add sugar, milk, sour cream, applesauce, butter, eggs, and lemon juice.
- Beat with a mixer on low speed until blended or hand stir until just blended.
- Add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir until just moistened, careful not to over stir.
- Gently stir in blueberries. (avoid over mixing so batter doesn’t turn blue) Fill muffin cups ¾ full of batter.
Make the struesel topping:
- in a small bowl, add ½ cup brown and ½ flour and then cut in 4 tablespoons cold butter. Mix well until all flour and sugar is moistened by butter.
- Sprinkle the topping evenly to the top of uncooked batter in muffin tin. Bake 25- 30 until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean in the center.
- Let cool for 10 minutes then transfer to a wire rack
Notes
- Add the zest of on lemon in place of the lemon juice if preferred.
- Use gluten free flour if desired. (I use Bob’s Red Mill One-to-One flour)
- Use full fat sour cream for best results.
- Use fresh blueberries if desired.
- Batter will be thick so that's ok.
