For the Muffins:
- 2 ½ cups flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tsp milk
- ½ cup sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar
- 8 tbsp (1 stick) melted unsalted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 6 oz container fresh blackberries (if they’re the big ones, cut them in half))
For the Streusel Topping:
- ⅓ cup pecans, chopped
- 1 ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅔ cup brown sugar
- ½ cup flour
- ½ cup oatmeal
- ⅓ cup melted unsalted butter
Directions:
- Preheat & Prep: Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix eggs, sour cream, milk, both sugars, melted butter, and vanilla. Use an electric mixer. The batter will be VERY thick.
- Combine & Fold in Blackberries: Gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a few light strokes—don’t overmix.
- Lightly coat the berries in a small amount of flour before folding them into the batter. This helps prevent them from sinking. The batter should be lumpy, not smooth.
