- ¼ cup sugar (50 g)
- ½ cup mixed nuts, such as cashews, almonds, and peanuts (60 g)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (2.6 g)
- 1¾ cups all-purpose flour (193 g)
- 2 teaspoons baking powder (8 g)
- A pinch of salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened (113 g)
- ¾ cup sugar (150 g)
- 2 large eggs
- 3 tablespoons plain Greek yogurt (45 g)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (5 ml)
- ¾ cup milk (180 ml)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (150 g)
- Prepare the topping and dry ingredients by pulsing the nuts with ¼ cup sugar and ground cinnamon until crumbly. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with the sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients by adding half of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mixing just until combined.
- Pour in the milk, mix again, then add the rest of the flour and stir until the batter is smooth but not overmixed.
- Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula.
- Divide the batter evenly into a lined or greased 12-cup muffin pan, filling each about ¾ full.
- Sprinkle the nut topping generously over each muffin.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20–25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For best results, use fresh blueberries.
- These muffins can be frozen for up to 3 months.
- Feel free to substitute the mixed nuts with your favorite nuts or omit them entirely.
