The Ultimate Blueberry Muffin

B
                    BLUEBERRIES, FRESH, PLUMP, & JUICY BERRIES MAKE THESE MUFFINS INCREDIBLE! Best thing besides AMAZING MUFFINS is you do NOT use your mixer so clean-up is a SNAP! Get blueberries while they are in season & make a dozen of THE BEST MUFFINS you could ever wish to eat!

1 Pint Blueberries
1 Cup Sugar
2 & 1/2 Cups Flour
1 TBS Baking Powder ( YES 1 TABLESPOON)
1 TSP Salt
1 TSP Cinnamon
2 Beaten Eggs
1/4 Vegetable Oil
1 Cup Vanilla Yogurt
1 TSP Vanilla
Stir all the dry ingredients together, dump in all the wet EXCEPT berries, stirring just to combine the wet & dry.   
          Now dump in the berries that you washed & destemmed. Fold them in GENTLY!
      SPRAY your muffin tin with baking spray OR USE muffin papers but I ALWAYS use the spray, I HATE peeling off paper from my muffins. Now mix up the following crumb topping to spoon over the batter.
                                                              
1 Cup Flour
2/3 Cup Sugar
2 TBS Brown Sugar
1 TSP Cinnamon
Dash of Salt
1 HEAPING TBS Shortening
Stir all the dry together then cut in the shortening to make crumbs. Spoon GENEROUS amounts of crumbs on top of each muffin & then GENTLY pat down to get crumbs to stick. DO NOT BE ALARMED lots of the crumb topping will fall off when you dump these out THAT IS OK you want just enough for crunch & not an over abundance of crumb to take away from the star of the show, the blueberries!
  Bake 400 degree oven for 20 or so minutes CHECK WITH a toothpick , when muffins are brown & toothpick comes out clean ( blueberry goo is OK not wet batter though) remove from the oven & let cool 6 minutes before dumping out of the pan. 
                                                                                                                                            YOU WILL HAVE 1 DOZEN of THE BEST MUFFINS ! Serve piping hot with butter or eat them cold the taste in these muffins is WOW!
                                                                                                                                               BREAKFAST, LUNCH, SNACK or for DINNER these Blueberry Muffins are a WINNER!
