Blueberry Muffins
- 56 g unsalted butter (4 tbsp.)
- 100 g granulated sugar (½ c.)
- 1 egg room temperature
- ½ tsp. vanilla
- 120 g plain whole milk kefir room temperature (½ c.)
- 140 g all purpose flour (1 c. + 2 ½ tbsp.)
- 1 tsp. baking powder
- ¼ tsp. baking soda
- ¼ tsp. salt
- 80 g blueberries (½ c.)
- 2 tsp. all purpose flour
- ¼ c. blueberry jam
Preheat the oven to 425°F / 220°C. Line a muffin pan with 6 parchment liners.
Streusel
In a small bowl, melt the butter. Add in the brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Use a fork to mix the ingredients together, then set aside. The streusel will seem super buttery & become a cohesive dough, but will be able to be crumbled by the time we add it to the muffins.
Blueberry Muffins
In a medium sized mixing bowl, melt the butter. Whisk in the sugar, egg, vanilla and kefir until well combined.
Add in the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Use a rubber spatula to lightly fold the mixture until just a few flour streaks remain.
In a small bowl, toss the blueberries with 2 tsp. of flour. Then, add the blueberries into the batter and fold just until no flour streaks remain.
Now it's time to layer the muffins. Start by pouring ~2 tbsp. of muffin batter into the bottom of each muffin liner. Top with 1 tsp. of blueberry jam, followed by ~1 tbsp. of streusel.
Top with an additional ~3 tbsp. of muffin batter, 1 tsp. of blueberry jam, and the remaining streusel.
Bake the muffins at 425°F for 5 minutes. Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 350°F / 175°C.
Bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean.
Serve and enjoy!
