Moist Mini Blueberry Muffins topped with a sweet cinnamon sugar streusel. This quick and easy recipe takes just 20 minutes and uses 1 cup of fresh blueberries for the best flavor. These fluffy bite-sized muffins are perfect for breakfast, school snacks, or even dessert. They’re freezer-friendly too, making them a great make-ahead option for busy mornings!

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.
We’re a big fan of mini muffins. When I’m not making these blueberry muffins, we’re snacking on Mini Coffee Cake Muffins and Mini and Moist Banana Muffins. They’re the perfect bite-sized treat — easy to grab for a quick breakfast, pack into lunchboxes, or enjoy as an afternoon snack. Plus, they bake faster than regular muffins and are great for portion control (unless you have no self control – that’s me).

Fresh Blueberries Are Best, But..
I always recommend using fresh blueberries when baking — especially since we grow my own in the garden! Fresh berries keep the batter light and clean, while frozen blueberries can sometimes dye the batter a blue-green color. If you do use frozen berries, don’t thaw them first; just pat them dry with a paper towel and gently fold them into the batter.
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!

Freezing Mini Muffins
Let the mini muffins cool completely after baking. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for about 1 hour, until firm. Then transfer the muffins to a freezer-safe bag or container. When you’re ready for breakfast, just grab a muffin and microwave it for about 20–30 seconds, or let it thaw at room temperature. They stay fresh in the freezer for up to 3 months!
Can these be made into regular sized blueberry muffins?
Yes, you can! Just fill a regular-sized muffin tin and bake for about 22 minutes. If you want to make a full dozen muffins, be sure to double the recipe. You can easily adjust the serving size in the recipe card below to get the right ingredient amounts!

who doesn’t love blueberry muffins and the crumble well it just keeps getting better. I like the idea of the muffin instead of the cake because you kind of know how much you are eating- otherwise I keep cutting another small piece.

Hey Marc, you want to use 1/2 of the entire egg. The easiest way to do is to break a egg in a small bowl, mix and then just use 1/2 of it. Enjoy these muffins!
Laura | Food Fun Family says
These look adorable and delicious! Thanks for sharing with the Delicious Dishes Recipe party this week!
Emily says
Mmmm, I could go for one (or three) of these right now! Yum! I am terrible with recipe organization too. I have a bunch of loose sheets of paper and index cards, plus my Pinterest recipes board. But I really hate having my laptop or iPad in the kitchen while I’m cooking – that is just a disaster waiting to happen. I’ve been thinking I need a more traditional system, like a recipe box or dedicated book. Thanks for sharing your recipe with Merry Monday this week! I definitely want to give these a try!

I like mini bites like this as you don’t feel guilty when you have one. Well, not unless you have several at a time. 😀
Sonali- The Foodie Physician says
These look so cute and delicious! My 2 1/2 year old daughter would “eat ’em up” (if there were any left after my husband and I got to them)!
mira says
These mini muffins look scrumptious! Love them! Pinned 🙂 I used to print recipes, but not anymore 🙂 I now save them to Pinterest or write them in a notebook 🙂
Debbie from MountainMama says
Oh these look amazing!! Pinning and absolutely making the next weekend I have off!! Oh, and my recipe binder? It started out so well, once upon a time. Same as you, recipes printed and in plastic sleeves, organized by meal. Now? Ummmmm not so much. A million printed papers stuffed in the front and the back…nothing has been organized in eons. I keep my recipes on Pinterest now. However, even those need to be more organized at this point as there are sooooo many I have saved!
