Ingredients
Topping:
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter, softened
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon peel
Muffins:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 large eggs
- 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
- 3/4 cup fresh blueberries
- 3/4 cup fresh raspberries
Directions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a standard 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
To make the topping, in a medium bowl, mix together the topping ingredients until crumbly. Set aside.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the melted butter. Add the buttermilk and lemon zest and whisk to combine. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir just to combine. (Batter will still be somewhat lumpy; do not overmix.) Gently fold in the blueberries and raspberries so the berries do not break open and pour into the prepared muffin tin. Crumble the streusel topping over the muffins and bake until golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
Let cool in the tins for 10 minutes, then remove and cool on wire racks.

Phenomenal!!! Even my healthy version and without making the frosting: substituted 1/2 AP flour for 1/2 Whole Wheat Flour. Substituted 4 tbsp apple sauce + 4 tbsp veggie oil for 1 stick of butter. Everything else I would keep the same. The raspberries make these muffins pop, so next time I would add more. ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL. MY FAVORITE MUFFIN RECIPE!!! You will love it if you like biting into fruit!!!

ONE OF THE BEST MUFFINS I HAVE EVER MADE. FULL OF BERRIES AND EVEN WITHOUT STREUSLE TOPPING STILL GREAT AND NOT SWEET. SUPER WITH THE STREUSLE TOPPING. FREEZE WELL AFTER BAKING AND COOLING AND RETAIN FLAVOR AND MOISTURE. AGREE WITH OTHER REVIEWERS ...THOSE RASPBERRIES ARE REALLY SPECIAL IN THIS RECIPE. TRY IT, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED. AND DON'T LEAVE OUT THE LEMON ZEST!!

Brilliant!
I didn't have all purpose flour but cake flour and raw cane sugar on hand, the muffins were the best I've ever made!
You can taste the cinnamon, lemon zest and of course the raspberries and blueberries were a fabulous combination. I didn't use the topping solution, but I'm sure it would have been fabulous.
Try it today!
