Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Melt the unsalted butter and let it cool slightly, then whisk in the egg, whole milk, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
- Fold in the fresh blueberries, ensuring they are well coated with the batter.
- If using the crumb topping, mix together flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and cold butter until crumbly.
- Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with batter and sprinkle the crumb topping if desired.
- Bake for 5 minutes at 400°F (200°C), then reduce the temperature to 375°F (190°C) and continue baking for 15-18 minutes.
- Once baked, let the muffins cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes
Avoid overmixing your batter to keep muffins tender and fluffy. Coat blueberries in flour to prevent sinking, and ensure baking powder is fresh.
