Instructions

For the crumble:

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. In a microwave-safe bowl or measuring cup, melt butter at 10 second intervals until butter is melted.

Step 2

Whisk in the 3 tbsp of Redpath® Golden Yellow Sugar and pure vanilla extract until well mixed. Pour the butter-sugar mixture over the dry ingredients and with a fork or your fingertips work into the dry ingredients until clumps form.

For the muffins:

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425ºF (218ºC). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.

Step 2

In a medium bowl whisk together the flour, Redpath® Golden Yellow Sugar, Redpath Granulated Sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground nutmeg until well combined.

Step 3

In a large measuring cup, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, egg, orange zest, pure vanilla extract, and almond extract.

Step 4

Make a well in the dry ingredients. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry. With a rubber spatula, fold the mixture together, using as few strokes as possible, until just-combined.

Step 5

Fold in the blueberries.

Step 6

With a small ice cream scoop, fill each lined muffin well about ¾ full. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with about a tablespoon of the crumble topping. Lightly pat the topping into the batter.

Step 7

Place into the preheated oven and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce temperature to 350ºF (177ºC). Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.

Step 8

Take out of the oven and allow to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before removing from pan and placing onto a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip


*If buttermilk is unavailable, a good substitute is to stir 1 tablespoon (15 millilitres) of white vinegar or lemon juice into 1 cup (240 millilitres) of milk. Allow to sit and thicken; 5 to 10 minutes. Proceed with the recipe, as usual, using the necessary amount of buttermilk required.
