Moist Mini Blueberry Muffins with cinnamon sugar streusel. This recipe is easy to make in 20 minutes total, made with 1 cup of fresh blueberries! My family loves these fluffy muffins for breakfast, snack and dessert!
Mini Blueberry Muffins Recipe
These mini blueberry muffins are moist, fluffy, and they have the most delicious streusel crumble on top! I can guarantee these will be gone in a day, they’re that good.
These muffins are easy to make, and take about 20 minutes from start to finish. My family absolutely devours them and since they’re mini it means you can eat 6 without any regrets! (or that’s what I tell myself).

Here’s a quick recipe video I made to show you easy they are to make!
How long do mini muffins take in the oven?
Mini muffins take 12-13 minutes in the oven at 375 degrees F. When the sides are slightly golden brown they’re done.
What is a streusel topping made of?
Streusel is simply just flour, sugar, butter and cinnamon. The streusel adds a crumbly delicious texture to the top of the muffins. The cinnamon sugar streusel is my favorite part!
How to Make The Best Mini Blueberry Muffins
Muffin Batter: Spray a mini muffin pan with nonstick spray. You only need one large mixing bowl for this recipe. Mix sugar, butter, egg, vanilla and milk with a hand mixer and then add the flour, baking powder and salt.
Add in the fresh blueberries, stirring them with a spoon (don’t use the hand mixer with the blueberries!).
Spoon this mixture into your muffin pan.
Streusel: In a small bowl mix flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and butter, mixing until it’s crumbly. I do this with a fork. Add to the top of the muffin batter.
Time to Bake: Bake until sides are golden brown. Remove from oven and serve warm! I hope you enjoy these Mini Blueberry Muffins!
Can these be made into regular sized blueberry muffins?
Yes, you absolutely can. Fill in a regular size muffin tin and adjust the baking time to 22 minutes. If you want to make a dozen of these muffins, make sure to double the recipe. Use the recipe card below to adjust serving size for easy ingredient amounts!
Should I use fresh or frozen blueberries?
I always recommend using fresh blueberries when baking as I find when using frozen berries they tend to naturally dye the batter. If you are going to use frozen blueberries, do not thaw them, simply just pat them with a paper towel and add to the batter.

These are absolutely delicious! You’ve heard of three bite brownies….well these are three bite muffins! Love them and I’ll definitely make them again!
Natasha D says
Hello! Can I use almond flour instead?
Pamela Reed says
Hey Natasha, I have not tried using almond flour for these muffins, but I’d love to hear if you give it a try!
Kelley says
Can these be frozen and reheated later for a quick grab and go breakfast?
Pamela Reed says
Absolutley, I do it all the time. Simply freeze and then defrost in the microwave. Enjoy the muffins! 🙂
Michelle says
I didn’t have a hand mixer and am trying to whisk myself but the butter isn’t melting… should I start over?
Linda Wagnon says
How do make these sugar free?
Marie O says
I skipped the streusel, because I was pressed for time, and used partially thawed frozen blueberries. They turned out great and tasted delicious. Great addition to a brunch.
Liza says
Can I add walnuts with the mixture and toppings?
Pamela says
You can absolutely add chopped walnuts!
JANICE says
Should explain to cream sugar & butter first. Never mix all wet together without doing that first
DMF says
These are terrific. I especially love mini muffins, since they are the perfect size. Plus if you want another, you can always one. I got 23 mini muffins from your recipe using mini muffin pans. Despite that, I still had streusel topping left. Next time I make them, and there will be a next time, I will only make half of the streusel topping recipe. I don’t like throwing food away. I may try making these with our blackberries this July when they are ready.
alex says
if you made these with blackberries, i’d love to know how they turned out! that sounds so good
Sue says
These were fantastic. Had exactly a cup of blueb’s left that I thought I would be throwing out for the birds. Poor birds lost out. I will definitely make these again when my own berries are ripe this summer.

Please use grams and milliliters like the rest of the world ! Stop being prehistoric if you want people outside America to read your blog and your recipes. Thank you.
Pamela says
Hi John, if you need help with measurements, you can easily find a conversion tool on Google. Hope this helps!
Debi says
John, work on converting it. That’s what I do when i have a recipe that calls for European measurements. Quit whining
Mary says
I have measuring cups, and measuring spoon that have both amounts on them. Ordered from Amazon cheap.
Pamela says
Yes, half an egg. Crack it open, mix and only use half.

I just made a double batch of these for a Mother’s Day breakfast tomorrow. They were absolutely delicious! I mixed them by hand because l didn’t feel like getting my mixer out. And I used frozen blueberries instead of fresh. Will definitely make them again!

Marsha says
Pamela…I’d like to make these for a tea party . Will they still be good if I make them the night before?
Pamela says
Hey Marsha, absolutely! Enjoy the muffins!
mary ann says
can you freeze these?
Pamela says
Hey Mary Ann – yes you can!
Pamela says
It means use 1/2 of the egg. Beat the egg with a fork, and only use half.
Debi says
I made them to take into work. Some had to stay at home under protest from the family. They are moist little blueberry bites. They did not last the morning at work. I doubled the recipe and it worked well. The crumble topping worked well. Not too sweet.

Marsha says
If you are using frozen blueberries do you defrost them first or add them frozen into the batter.
Pamela says
Hey Marsha, you can use frozen blueberries straight into the batter! Enjoy these muffins!
Barb says
Can you use frozen blueberries?
