Instructions
- Preheat oven yo 400 degrees Farenheit or 205 degrees Celcius.
- Line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper liners; set aside. (If you don’t want to use paper liners, you could coat a muffin pan with cooking spray instead.)
- Make the crumb topping by combining the flour, sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
- Add the cold butter and using your fingers work the butter into the dry ingredients until it looks like coarse crumbs. Set aside in the refrigerator.
- Next make the muffin batter by combining the flour, espresso powder, cinnamon, baking powder and salt in a large bowl.
- In another bowl, whisk together the melted butter, coffee, sugars, egg and vanilla until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients in with the dry and stir together just until mixed, don't overmix or your muffins will be tough.
- Gently add in your blueberries and mix to combine.
- Scoop the batter evenly into the muffin tin.
- Sprinkle the muffins with the crumb mixture, gently press the mixture into the top of the batter with your fingers.
- Place into the oven and bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin comes out clean.
- Remove the muffins from the pan and let them cool on a wire rack.
- Enjoy!
