Blueberry Lemon Muffins With Cardamom Crumble

 Well good morning and happy Wednesday!

 I think a few of these treats went missing...

 Who can play games when there are muffins to be eaten?!

 It's good to wake the brain up with a thinking game like chess, and nourishment to keep your tummy happy. 

 Just a bite left. 

 These little babies are just begging to have a bite taken out of them.

So of course I did! 

Look at the lovely crumble.

That topping could stand to be more plentiful. Guess you'll have to make these treats yourself and go a little wild with the crumble eh? 

Blueberry Lemon Muffins with Cardamom Crumble: Makes 12-14

Crumb Topping:

1. 2 tbsp melted butter
2. 4 tbsp flour
3. 2 tbsp brown sugar
4. 2 tbsp granulated sugar
5. 1/2 tsp cardamom
6. pinch of salt
7. pinch of nutmeg

Ingredients:

1. 1/2 cup melted butter (1 stick)
2. 3 tbsp lemon juice
3. 1 tsp lemon extract
4. zest from 1 lemon
5. 1tsp vanilla
6. 1/3 cup + 1 1/2 tbsp greek yogurt (The super thick stuff; I use Fage brand)
7. 2 medium eggs 
8. 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp sugar
9. 1 1/4 cup flour
10. 2 tsp baking powder
11. pinch of salt
12. 3/4 cup frozen blueberries

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 390 degrees. Line your muffin tins with paper cups. 
2. Whisk together granulated sugar and lemon zest in a medium size. Add flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Beat together eggs in a medium sized bowl. Add in lemon juice, lemon extract, and vanilla. Beat together well.
4. Add yogurt and melted butter. Continue to beat until you have a thick wet mixture. Add the dry mixture and mix until everything is thoroughly combined. 
5. Fold in frozen blueberries. 
6. Dole out the dough until each paper cup is 3/4 full. 
7. Be generous heaping on the crumble. I pressed it down with my fingers. I realized after I made them I should have put more on each one. 
8. Bake for 20 minutes and then let cool for about 3-5 minutes in the muffin tin. Put them to cook further on a cooling rack or do what I do at this point and eat your treats. You worked hard; you have to reward yourself.
