Blueberry Muffins

IMG_6979eBlueberry Muffins

The first time I made these was for a good friend’s wedding shower years ago.  They have been a hit ever since.  I love these the muffins and pretty much everyone that has them thinks the same.  Well with the exception of my husband ;-)  But I promise if you make these, your kids, friends and coworkers will enjoy them.

Muffins
1 ½ cups all purpose flour
¾ cup sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup canola (or vegetable oil)
1 egg
1/3 cup buttermilk
1 cup fresh blueberries

Topping
¼ cup sugar
½ of 1/3 cup of flour
2 tablespoons butter
¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.  Line muffin tin with 10 muffin cups.  Wash blueberries and set aside.

In large mixing bowl, add flour, sugar, salt and baking powder. Mix.

In small bowl, add sugar, flour, cinnamon and butter.  Mix with fork or hands until crumbly.  Of course, I recommend your hands.
