Who doesn't love a muffin top? Make just the best part of the muffin and there's no need to figure out what to do with the stumps! Enjoy these soft, pillowy tops with a perfect ratio of sweet, crunchy streusel.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Brown Butter Almond Streusel Topping
  • 3/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 - 1 teaspoon almond extract (depending on preference)
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two sheet pans with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, almond flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add blueberries and toss lightly to coat. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together oil and sugar. Add egg and whisk vigorously until light and fluffy. Add sour cream and almond extract. Mix to combine.
  4. Add blueberry and flour mixture to bowl of wet ingredients. Gently fold until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Place 6 mounds batter (about 1/4 cup each) on each sheet pan. An "ice cream" ratchet scoop works great for this.
  6. Sprinkle each mound with 2 to 3 tablespoons streusel topping. Cup your hand around the batter to help streusel adhere.
  7. Bake 18 to 20 minutes until golden and a toothpick entered into center comes out clean.

Cook Tips

Coating blueberries with flour mixture helps to keep them from sinking while baking.
