Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
-
Spray a 12-count muffin pan with nonstick spray or use cupcake liners.
-
Grease or line a 2nd pan with 2 liners because this recipe yields about 14 muffins.
-
Set aside.
-
Mix all of the streusel ingredients together. Set aside.
-
Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Set aside.
-
Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together at high speed for about 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
-
At medium speed, add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
-
Beat in the sour cream and vanilla extract on medium speed until combined.
-
With the mixer running on low speed, add the dry ingredients and milk into the wet ingredients and beat until no flour pockets remain.
-
Fold in the blueberries.
-
Spoon the batter into the liners, filling them all the way to the top.
-
Top each with streusel, gently pressing it down into the surface so it sticks.
-
Bake for 5 minutes at 425 degrees F then, keeping the muffins in the oven, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
-
Bake for an additional 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
-
The total time these muffins take in the oven is about 23 to 25 minutes, give or take.
-
Allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the muffin pan, then transfer to a wire rack to continue cooling.

Recipe Notes
- The muffins stay fresh covered at room temperature for a few days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
- Freezing Instructions: Freeze the baked and cooled muffins for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator or at room temperature before enjoying.
- Sour Cream: The sour cream adds so much moisture. Plain yogurt is a great substitute. Unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana may also be used.
- Milk: Any milk may be used for this recipe, dairy or nondairy.
- Blueberries: If using frozen blueberries, do not thaw.
- For a jumbo muffin pan, bake in the oven at 425 degrees F for 5 minutes, then reduce to 350 degrees F for 22 to 25 minutes for a total of 27 to 30 minutes. This makes about 6.
- For mini muffins, bake at 350 degrees F for 12 to 14 minutes. This makes about 36 to 40.
- All refrigerated items should be at room temperature so the batter mixes together easily and evenly.
