Cake Batter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2½ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, room temp (1 stick)
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Crumble Topping
- 2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (or ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
Cake Batter
Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a cupcake pan with liners. In a mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, and salt and set aside.
In another mixing bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter and sugar until creamy, about 4-5 minutes. Add the egg and continue to beat until fluffy. Add the vanilla to the milk in a separate bowl or measuring cup and stir together.
Add half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir in. Add half of the milk with vanilla and mix in. Repeat until everything is combined and smooth.
Spoon the mixture into the liners. The batter is VERY sticky and thick so this is a little tricky. I used a cookie scoop and then patted down the batter with a spoon.
Sprinkle the blueberries on top of the sticky batter.
