Ingredients
  

Streusel

  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 tbsp butter room temperature
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts

Blackberry Muffins

  • 120 grams butter room temperature
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (100g)
  • 1/4 cup soft brown sugar (50g)
  • 2 medium eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (225g)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 cup milk (187 ml)
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar or white vinegar
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blackberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 220 °C (or 200 °C fan-bake) and grease a 12 muffin tin.
  • Make the streusel by combining all the streusel ingredients together. Stir it with a fork or rub it with your fingers to make a rough crumble. Set it aside.
  • To make the muffins, add the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar into a mixing bowl.
  • Use an electric mixer to cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
  • Add the vinegar to the milk.
  • Add the flour, baking soda and baking powder to the butter and egg mixture and fold it together, along with the milk + vinegar. Fold it gently until it's all combined.
  • Stir through the blackberries, breaking them up a little bit as you do so.
  • Divide the batter into the muffin tin. Sprinkle the streusel overtop, pressing it lightly into the batter to help it stick.
  • Place the tray in the oven and lower the heat to 200 °C (or 180 °C fan-bake.) Bake the muffins for around 18-22 minutes until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
  • Let the muffins cool for 5 minutes before removing from the tray.
