    Taste and Occasion

    Blueberry crumble muffins also taste good with frozen fruit, but fresh, they are better. Until I was really satisfied with my blueberry muffins recipe, it took a while this time. The first alternative was not "muffin-like" enough because I first used a cake batter, which is typical for muffins. The second alternative, with sour cream, had a strange consistency. And the amount of crumbles was always too little anyway 😉 .

    After some tinkering, ingredient swapping, and quantity adjustment, these "perfect" American blueberry muffins with buttermilk and crumbles came out for me. The crowning glory of the muffins is the oatmeal crumble topping. The critical thing with blueberry muffins (as with all other muffin recipes) is to mix the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients very briefly but thoroughly, of course.

    How to make the American Blueberry Muffins

    Let's go: First prepare the crumble. To do this, briefly knead the very cold butter in pieces with the other ingredients, then crumble with your fingers to form crumbles. Place in the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C. For the muffin batter, whisk the melted, slightly cooled butter first with the sugar, then with the eggs and buttermilk. Mix the remaining dry ingredients in a second bowl. Add to the liquid ingredients and mix everything briefly (!) but thoroughly. In no case, stir too long! Finally, carefully fold in the washed berries.

    Now, divide the dough into 12 muffin cups (preferably silicone) and place the cups in a muffin tray. Sprinkle with the prepared sprinkles. In the end, bake muffins for about 25 minutes until golden brown.

    Recipe Recommendation

    Chocolate Muffins with Oil

    Our favorite chocolate & cocoa muffins are simply delicious, moist & tasty. If you like, add chocolate drops to the dough or decorate them with frosting.

    The baking soda, combined with the baking powder, results in a fluffy dough. Because of the baking soda, the tart buttermilk has to go into the crumble muffins.
