Ingredients

Cake Batter

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 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
  • teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (or ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold

Instructions

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.

Crumble Topping

  • Add the topping ingredients to a bowl and cut in the butter with a pastry cutter or fork until you have a nice crumble. Add the crumble to the top of each cupcake. Bake for about 30 minutes until the top is just getting golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Carefully remove the cupcakes from the pan and allow them to cool on a rack for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
