How to make Berry Streusel Muffins

Prep

Start by preheating the oven to 350 degrees F.

Then, line a muffin pan with paper or silicone cups. If you don’t have either of these, spray the muffin pan very well with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.

Clean and prep your fruit, cut up only the strawberries into small chunks.

Muffin batter

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until nice and fluffy.

Next, beat in the egg until fully combined.

In a separate small bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. If you don’t have a sieve, a whisk will work just fine.

After that, add the flour mixture and the milk to the large bowl with the butter mixture. Alternating by adding flour, then milk, start and end with the flour being added.

Lastly, fold in the blueberries, strawberries, and white chocolate chips.

Proceed to pour the batter into greased or paper-lined muffin cups, filling about 3/4 of the way.

Make streusel

In a medium-size bowl, combine all the streusel ingredients until mixed well.

Using a fork, sprinkle the streusel over the top of the unbaked muffin cups. Make sure to spread the mixture out evenly over each muffin, giving them all plenty of streusel love.

Bake

Place muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes at 350 degrees F.

Let the muffins cool for about 10 minutes, if desired, melt the white chocolate chips in the microwave adn drizzle over the tops of the muffins. Let them cool for a few more minutes.

Serve fresh and warm, enjoy!

Enjoy!

How long are berry streusel muffins good for?

These muffins will last about 3 or 4 days at room temperature if kept stored in an airtight container. This should give you plenty of time to enjoy them while they’re still fresh. Tip: I like to microwave my muffins the next day for about 10-15 seconds to get a warm and fluffy bite that tastes like it’s fresh from the oven.

Can I freeze berry muffins?

Yes, you can freeze these muffins after they have cooled completely by placing them into an airtight container for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to eat one you can simply place it onto the counter for about 15-30 minutes to thaw enough that you can safely bite into it.

Should I thaw frozen berries for muffins?

You do not need to thaw your blueberries before using them. You can use them straight from frozen because they will thaw and heat up as the muffins bake. Keeping the berries frozen also helps to prevent the colors of the berries from being streaked throughout the batter as well.
