INSTRUCTIONS
STREUSEL TOPPING Hmmm, I don't know how *creative* this recipe is, but it makes the absolute *best* muffins I have ever tasted. My husband is positively addicted to them! Streusel Topping: Combine flour, sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Set aside. Muffins: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease 12 muffin-pan cups (or line with paper liners). Combine flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. In mixer bowl, beat butter with sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy. Add eggs, beating until smooth. Add vanilla and lemon peel. Add dry ingredients alternately with milk. Fold in blueberries. Spoon batter into prepared cups. Sprinkle with streusel. Bake 20 to 25 minutes, until toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean. Cool in pans on wire rack 5 minutes. These are best served warm with lots of butter. You'll need a fork to eat them because they're messy. But boy, are they delicious! I usually make double or triple batches when fresh blueberries are cheap. They freeze really well. STATHAM@BGA.COM (PERRY STATHAM KATHY STATHAM) REC.FOOD.RECIPES From rec.food.cooking archives.
