Ingredients

Scale
  • 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)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the topping and dry ingredients by pulsing the nuts with ¼ cup sugar and ground cinnamon until crumbly. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter with the sugar until light and fluffy, about 2–3 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the Greek yogurt and vanilla extract until smooth.
  5. Combine wet and dry ingredients by adding half of the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mixing just until combined.
  6. Pour in the milk, mix again, then add the rest of the flour and stir until the batter is smooth but not overmixed.
  7. Gently fold in the blueberries with a spatula.
  8. Divide the batter evenly into a lined or greased 12-cup muffin pan, filling each about ¾ full.
  9. Sprinkle the nut topping generously over each muffin.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
